Crochet Lace Wholesale Price Guide June 2026 — Per-Metre Rates from Surat, Gujarat

Crochet Lace Wholesale Price Guide June 2026 — Per-Metre Rates from Surat, Gujarat
If you're sourcing crochet lace for boutiques, garment manufacturing, or export, knowing the prevailing wholesale price range in Surat is essential. Prices shift with raw material costs, seasonal demand, and design complexity. This guide covers what you should expect to pay per metre in June 2026.
Price Ranges by Lace Type
Crochet lace prices in Surat vary by three primary factors: material (cotton vs polyester vs blended), design intricacy, and order volume. Here are the current wholesale ranges:
| Lace Type | Width | Economy Grade | Standard Grade | Premium Grade |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Cotton crochet lace | 0.5-2" | ₹8-12/metre | ₹14-22/metre | ₹28-45/metre |
| Cotton crochet lace | 2-4" | ₹12-18/metre | ₹20-35/metre | ₹38-50/metre |
| Polyester crochet lace | 0.5-2" | ₹5-8/metre | ₹10-18/metre | ₹22-35/metre |
| Polyester crochet lace | 2-4" | ₹8-14/metre | ₹16-25/metre | ₹28-45/metre |
| Jari-blend crochet lace | 0.5-2" | ₹15-25/metre | ₹30-45/metre | ₹40-50/metre |
Prices are per metre FOB Surat. Actual rates depend on: order quantity (500m+ typically unlocks 10-15% discount vs 100m orders), design complexity (hand-finished edges cost more), colour (custom-dyed commands a 5-10% premium over standard white/cream), and current raw material costs.
How Quantity Affects Price
Surat's wholesale lace market operates on volume-based pricing. Here's a realistic breakdown for a mid-range cotton crochet lace (1.5-inch width, standard grade, white/cream):
Paras Lace works with a value-based MOQ — a minimum order of ₹5,000–7,000 worth of goods, mixable across designs. Custom-dyed or exclusive patterns are quoted per project.
Current Market Conditions — June 2026
Raw material prices are a key variable. Cotton yarn prices have been elevated since mid-May 2026, though the government's temporary removal of the 11% cotton import duty (effective June 1 to October 31, 2026) has provided some relief. Polyester yarn prices remain stable.
What this means for buyers: Cotton crochet lace prices in June 2026 are 5-8% higher than the same period in 2025. Polyester crochet lace prices are largely unchanged. If you're price-sensitive, polyester crochet lace offers better margins right now — and modern polyester crochet lace is virtually indistinguishable from cotton in look and hand-feel.
Tips for Negotiating Wholesale Lace Prices in Surat
-
Ask for the rate card upfront. Reputable manufacturers have standard rate sheets by width and quality grade. If a supplier quotes without one, get a second opinion.
-
Specify your width exactly. "Crochet lace" means different things — a 0.75-inch narrow trim and a 3-inch border are different products with different price points. Be precise.
-
Confirm roll length. Prices are per metre, but rolls vary from 9 to 18 metres. A ₹15/metre quote on 9-metre rolls means ₹135 per roll. The same per-metre price on 18-metre rolls means ₹270 per roll. Factor shipping costs accordingly.
-
Request a sample before bulk orders. Most Surat manufacturers ship free samples for domestic buyers. Check the thread density, colour consistency, and edge finishing on the sample before committing.
