Built on quality,
sustained by trust.
Since 1994, Prince Impex has supplied fabrics with a focus on quality, consistency and dependability. By supplying customers across Africa, we continue to build our business the same way we always have — by building relationships that last.
Our Story
A family-owned fabric house, established 1994.
Prince Impex has been built steadily since 1994, with a straightforward approach to business: source good fabrics, stand behind what we supply and treat every relationship with the importance it deserves.
Based in Newlands, Durban, we source a diverse range of fabrics from trusted manufacturers and suppliers around the world, supplying customers across Africa. We hold an extensive range in depth — from everyday staples to specialist cloths — and where a particular fabric isn’t on the shelf, we’ll source it to order.
As a family-owned business, we take a long-term view. Quality, consistency and reliability aren’t marketing lines for us — they’re the standards we aim to maintain in the fabrics we source, the service we provide and the relationships we’ve built over the years.

What We Stand For
Four principles, unchanged since 1994.
Quality
Carefully Sourced. Consistently Supplied
Every fabric we carry is chosen with care and checked against the standard our customers expect. We would rather hold back a delivery than send cloth that isn’t right.
Reliability
Dependable Service. Established Supply
Our customers plan their production around us. We keep core lines in depth, keep colours consistent from one order to the next and keep our word on what we can supply.
Variety
Extensive Range. Diverse Selection
From everyday workhorse cloths to specialist finishes, our range covers a broad spectrum of weights, weaves and colours — and where something isn’t on the shelf, we will source it.
Relationships
Built on Trust. Maintained by Service
Much of our business is repeat business. Account pricing, a dedicated sales representative and a team that answers for its work are how we earn that trust, year after year.
How We Work
From the mill to your cutting table.
Where a fabric isn’t on our shelves, we’ll source it to order — whatever the scale of your wholesale requirement.
