Importers and wholesalers who know the used-clothing trade from the ground up
A partner-owned business in Karachi, the heart of Pakistan’s used-clothing trade.
Built in the market we sell to
Shah Reuse & Trading Enterprise (SRTE) brings together partners with hands-on experience of the used-clothing trade: buying containers, clearing them in Karachi and selling bale by bale to the wholesalers who supply Pakistan's markets.
Our team imports 15–20 40ft containers every month, today sourced from graders and collectors in the USA and Canada. We buy sorted clothing, footwear and household textiles in every grade, plus original (unsorted) loads that we sort ourselves in Karachi.
We are now expanding into Europe, beginning with Italy, to add the winter-rich, consistently graded stock that Pakistani buyers ask for most.
“We would rather work with three reliable partners for ten years than with thirty for one season.”
