Company History & Operations

19+ Years of Direct Manufacturing Governance

Founded in 2007 by apparel manufacturing specialists Mohammad Amirul Islam and Shahidul Islam Raju, Sabah Designers Ltd was established to provide international brands with transparent, direct-factory knitwear manufacturing from Bangladesh.

What began as a single cut-and-sew unit has grown into an integrated group of three specialized industrial facilities in Kashimpur, Gazipur:

  • Sabah Designers Ltd (Campus 1): 18 modular sewing lines, CNC cutting, finishing, independent QA, and export packing.
  • Sarah Industries (Campus 2 · Sister Company): 28 circular knitting machines milling 15,000+ kgs of jersey, pique, and fleece daily.
  • Riverain (Campus 3 · Sister Concern): 2 automatic 14-color screen carousels and 60 computerized Tajima embroidery heads.

Today, our operations employ 950+ staff and machine operators, supervised by 60 technical line chiefs and QA engineers across 85,000+ sq. ft. of purpose-built production space.
