Kolkata's football and garment trade
Kolkata's football culture runs from its historic clubs, Mohun Bagan and East Bengal, down to neighbourhood para clubs. Metiabruz, on the city's south-west edge, is a large tailoring and readymade garment centre.
Para clubs and supporter groups order named jerseys in big batches before derbies and local tournaments. AJILE runs each club's list straight from the sheet, so printers can take more orders in derby week.

Season
Football leads, with the local league and club season and a big spike before derbies. Cricket and school events fill the winter.
Tip for derby week
Before a big derby, supporter groups order in bulk. Ask each group for one sheet and run them as they arrive rather than waiting to batch them. With AJILE each list takes minutes, so an early start keeps the printing line moving through the week.
