Frequently Asked Questions

How do I apply/ enquire for wholesale or corporate gifts?

To keep things efficient and aligned, all wholesale orders start with an application. This gives us an idea of what your needs are so that we can best assist.

Once your application (see from below) is reviewed, you’ll receive:

  • MOQ information
  • Lead time guidance
  • Next steps

What are your typical lead times & delivery options?

  • Lead times depend on order size and customisation. We will confirm this with you once quotes have been accepted and you are ready to place your order.
  • Local delivery available across South Africa via a 3rd party Courier Service.
  • Collection from Strand can be arranged by prior agreement
  • We prioritise clear communication and realistic timelines.

Can I mix products within one wholesale order?

Yes.

You may mix different products and sizes within a single order, as long as minimum quantities are met per product or size.

What if I'm not sure I want to place a bulk order yet?

If you’re still exploring options:

  • Browse our products currently available for retail purchase.
  • Make a note of products for future bulk ordering. Please note that some ranges are limited in stock due to fabric availability.
  • Contact us with general questions: info@lulahandmade.com or WhatsApp +27 72 996 7607
  • Retail orders can be placed directly via the shop.

Can I order the same products again in the future?

Yes.
We prioritise repeat orders and consistency.

While exact fabrics may vary depending on availability, sizing, construction and overall look remain consistent for our standard ranges.

Are your products suitable for resale pricing?

Yes. Wholesale pricing is structured to allow for standard retail mark-ups while remaining accessible to end customers.

Can I request samples before placing a wholesale order for my shop?

Samples may be purchased at retail price (shipping for your account).

These are subject to availability, and lead times depend on specific product, branding (in the case of corporate orders).

What happens if there’s an issue with my order?

If there’s a problem with your order, please contact us within a specified timeframe after delivery so we can resolve it promptly.

Can you develop a product for us?

We’re happy to explore custom product development for suitable projects.

Requests that fall outside our existing product range — including new designs, new formats or structural changes — are treated as product development and may incur a development fee.

This fee covers time & materials (within reason), and may be credited against confirmed production orders.

Wholesale purchasing is selecting from what already exists as part of our range.

Product development is creating something new.

Do you hold stock or make to order?

Most wholesale orders are made to order. This helps us reduce waste and maintain quality.
