The Apparel Company
Sarena Apparel is approved for both OekoTex® and Sedex®.
Since the mid-nineties, the Sarena, Sefam and Ali Group has been running around 1,500 machines in several different facilities to meet a part of its own production requirement for its retail business. Sarena Apparel was formally established in January 2014 as a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Sarena, Sefam and Ali Group of companies. It follows a major over-haul of one of the group’s existing manufacturing facilities which was entirely dedicated to servicing captive demand for western apparel. The new facility was established with a view to servicing Sarena Finishing Mills’ already comprehensive customer base for full packages. Like Sarena Mills, Sarena Apparel finds its strength in the diversity of its product offerings and is dedicated to the goal of becoming a progressive, technologically advanced, quality conscious and ethical production entity. Our product base includes both woven and knits fabric manufacturing and separate lines for uniforms, sportswear, ethnic wear, tops and bottoms. Owing to the group’s strong history in production, Sarena has the advantage of being able to draw on a wealth of organizational knowledge and support structures to manage its product diversity. In addition Sarena Apparel incorporates the flexibility to service both large runs (for mega retailers) as well as smaller orders for fast fashion or boutique businesses.
With substantial investment in automation and SAP® systems, Sarena Apparel strives to be a standard bearer for best practices and transparency.
