The name

From the Greek téleios: complete, finished, brought to its end. That is the job. You bring the idea; we hand back a finished product, packed and across the border.

If you are a retailer, distributor or e-commerce store owner, Telios designs and manufactures unique, on-demand products for your brand. We work from your tech pack, your sample or a reference photo, and we take care of patterns, materials, production and delivery.

The manufacturing facilities involved in our products have passed rigorous standards and comply with export regulations. Because ninety per cent of what we make is made in Mexico, your production sits a truck ride from your warehouse, not an ocean away.

Why nearshore

A shorter thread between the mill and your shelf.

Every hand-off between factory and warehouse adds days, cost and risk. Producing in Mexico removes most of them.

  • Goods move overland by truck, so lead times are measured in days, not weeks at sea.
  • Qualifying goods can enter the US and Canada with minimal or zero tariffs under USMCA, the agreement that replaced NAFTA.
  • Shared time zones make approvals same-day, and a factory visit is a short flight.
  • Faster reorders mean you can carry less safety stock and react to what actually sells.

The short thread

Made in Mexico
The Mexico route: partner mill to truck to border crossing to your distribution centre. Partner millMexico TruckOverland Border & customsHandled by White Lion Your DCUS / Canada
  • One land border, crossed with White Lion handling customs brokerage and logistics.
  • Reorders in weeks, so stock follows demand.

The long thread

Ocean freight from Asia
The ocean route from Asia: factory, origin port, ocean freight, transshipment, port of entry, drayage and rail, then your distribution centre. Factory Origin port Ocean freight Transshipment Port of entry Drayage / rail Your DC
  • More hand-offs, more ports and longer lead times between order and shelf.
  • Larger orders and deeper safety stock to cover the wait.
What you get

A one-stop shop for in-bulk textile buyers.

We produce high-end textile products and approach every detail with scrutiny and accuracy. Helping our customers prosper is the only true competitive advantage.

  • Fast turnarounds

    Production close to your market and approvals in your working day. Samples and bulk reach you by road, and reorders land in weeks rather than months.

  • Minimal or zero tariffs

    Goods that meet USMCA rules of origin can cross into the US and Canada with minimal or zero duty. We help you document origin and keep every shipment compliant.

  • Bulk prices

    Wholesale pricing on the highest-quality products, with competitive labour and material costs and freight that doesn’t cross an ocean.

  • Quality assurance

    Facilities that have passed rigorous standards, with White Lion factory audits, in-line follow-up and pre-shipment inspections on your orders.

  • High expertise

    From pattern creation to screen printing, our partner network spans spinning, weaving, knitting, finishing, cutting and sewing.

From inspiration to realisation

Bring your designs. We’ll provide the hard work.

A typical development path for a new style. Steps run in parallel where they can, and you approve every stage before money moves to the next one.

  1. Brief & NDA

    We sign an NDA before discussing details, then review your tech pack, sample or reference with your target price and quantities.

  2. Pattern & prototype

    R&D and engineering turn the brief into patterns and a first prototype in the fabric and trims you choose.

  3. Production & QC

    Approved samples move into bulk cut-and-sew, with in-line follow-up and inspections before anything ships.

  4. Border & delivery

    White Lion handles the border crossing, customs brokerage and logistics, and delivers ready to distribute.

In our clients’ words

Shorter supply chains, kept promises.

Three of the brand owners we have worked with, in their own words.

Telios helped us manufacture our very specialised hunting leather boots. They managed the logistics and the border crossing, and delivered the product in good condition, ready to be distributed.
Hunting & outdoor leather-goods brand
We were struggling to manufacture higher quantities on a faster turnaround. When we found Telios our problem was solved — they quickly established the new supply chain and delivered in 30 days.
Growing consumer brand
When Telios offered to help me get the type of dresses I need, I jumped in. I’m beyond satisfied with their service and the products I keep buying — and when something isn’t right, they fix it fast.
