Africa’s next big hub for Textiles: How Star Garments scaled in Togo

December 3, 2025

Star Garments is establishing its presence in Togo’s Apparel Manufacturing landscape, bringing together innovation, ethical production, and skilled craftsmanship as part of its expansion from Sri Lanka into West Africa.

With roots in Sri Lanka and over four decades of manufacturing excellence, Star Garments set out to expand beyond Asia. Their search for the next strategic frontier led them to West Africa and ultimately to Togo.

Why Togo? The decision was driven by three powerful advantages:

A fully Integrated Supply Chain opportunity: African-grown cotton, African-made fabric, and Africa-led apparel exports.
Strategic Logistics Gateway: Lomé’s deep-water port offers direct vessel access and faster, more reliable shipping.
Robust Industrial Ecosystem: ARISE IIP’s PIA delivers the infrastructure and operational support needed to scale efficiently.

Today, Star Garments operates a growing facility with 400 employees, set to expand to 2,000 - demonstrating the momentum and potential of Africa’s apparel opportunity.

With the right location, the right partners, and the right talent, Togo is proving to be one of the most compelling manufacturing destinations in the world.
