When India buyers order cosmetic pouches
Demand for cosmetic pouches rises around these periods. Placing the order and approving the sample a few weeks ahead keeps delivery on schedule. Dates are approximate and vary by year.
Diwali · October–November
The biggest corporate-gifting and festive-retail period of the year. Gift bags, corporate gift bags and printed carry bags are usually finalised several weeks in advance.
Wedding season · roughly November–February, with more dates in April–May
Return-gift bags, potlis, jewellery pouches and garment covers peak with wedding dates. Personalised printing needs extra lead time.
