What is Hakoba (Schiffli) fabric, and where can I buy it wholesale?

Short answer

Hakoba is cotton, rayon, or georgette fabric embroidered with all-over eyelet (cutwork) patterns using giant Schiffli embroidery machines. Mangaldas Market (Mumbai), New Cloth Market (Ahmedabad), and Ring Road (Surat) are top wholesale sources.

Named after a famous Mumbai textile brand that popularised Swiss Schiffli eyelet embroidery in India, Hakoba fabric is a perennial bestseller for summer kurtis, western dresses, blouses, and men's kurtas.

You can buy bleached white, RFD (Ready for Dyeing), and vat-dyed Hakoba rolls wholesale at Mangaldas Market (Kalbadevi) in Mumbai, New Cloth Market in Ahmedabad, and New Textile Market in Surat.
