What we offer

Three ways to work with Tampoori

Exclusive Custom Yardage

Commission fabric in colours that exist nowhere else. We work from your references: mood boards, runway imagery, even paint chips (!) to develop a colourway specific to your collection. Once confirmed via test swatch, we produce your yardage in the quantity you need.

Co-branded Collections

For designers who want a deeper creative partnership, we develop a capsule of fabrics together, combining your design direction with our artisan dyeing expertise. These collections are credited to both studios and are a natural fit for seasonal releases and fashion week presentations.

Design Buyouts

Want an in-house Tampoori pattern reserved exclusively for your brand? A design buyout retires the pattern from our general collection and hands you full rights to use it commercially. Your customers will never see it anywhere else.

Brief & references

You send us your concept: colour references, fabric type, intended use, quantities needed, and any deadlines. The more context, the better.

Feasibility & quote

We confirm what's achievable with our methods and send you a clear quote. For colour-sensitive work, we recommend a paid test swatch before full production.

Production

Your fabric is made by hand in our Accra studio: tied, waxed, dyed, dried in natural sunlight, finished, and inspected. Most orders complete in 2–6 weeks.

Delivery

We deliver locally across Ghana and ship internationally. Your fabric arrives carefully packaged and ready for your atelier.
