Sunrisebrands

Sunrise Brands is a Los Angeles–based wholesale apparel manufacturer that supplies women’s, men’s, and kids’ clothing, plus accessories, to mid-tier and better-price retailers across North America. Core categories include knit and woven tops, denim, sweaters, dresses, and loungewear sold under private-label and in-house labels such as Hard Tail, Sun & Shadow, and Threads 4 Thought. Price points sit in the mid-range band: wholesale tees and leggings start around $12, denim runs $24–34, and specialty sweaters reach $45–55. The company operates no direct-to-consumer e-commerce; all volume moves through brick-and-mortar accounts (Nordstrom, Dillard’s, Anthropologie, hundreds of specialty boutiques) and the password-protected B2B portal on sunrisebrands.com. The firm’s speed-to-market program turns trend concepts into delivered goods in 4–6 weeks, supported by vertical knitting and dyeing facilities in L.A. and strategic partner factories in Peru, India, and Vietnam. It is best known for pioneering premium yoga cotton in the late ’90s and now markets eco-dyed knits, recycled-poly activewear, and size-inclusive denim (24–38). Sunrise positions itself as “California-designed, responsibly made,” offering full-package development, U.S. inventory replenishment, and EDI compliance for major doors. Buyers are regional chains, resort boutiques, and online concept stores that need on-trend, replenishable product without minimums that exceed 150 units per color. Their end consumers are 25-45-year-old women seeking soft, wearable fashion that bridges weekend and studio; sustainability tags and domestic production resonate with eco-minded shoppers willing to pay $48 for a Made-in-USA burnout tee. Sunrise competes with other West-Coast full-package vendors chasing the same department-store and boutique real estate. It differentiates through domestic inventory programs that allow weekly re-order on 300 core styles, GOTS-certified and recycled fabric options, and in-house print design that drops 50 new graphics monthly—services many import-only competitors cannot match at comparable wholesale prices.
