Where activewear is made in China

Guangdong — Dongguan, Guangzhou and Shenzhen — is a main cluster for knit activewear and swimwear, with fabric mills, trims and export logistics close together. Fujian and Zhejiang also have large sportswear bases. More important than the province is whether the company you are emailing is the one that sews your garment.
