About us
SS Textiles is a socks manufacturer based in Durban – South Africa, we are proudly one of the first 100% Black female owned sock manufacturers in the country. The company was established by sisters Jenaisha Singh and Lanish Singh, who from a young age acquired the knowledge and skills of sock knitting from their father, whom has 41 years of expertise in the industry. Although their father retired from socks manufacturing, the sisters remained enthusiastic about socks knitting. They envisioned using and imparting their knowledge to upskill others and create jobs. After much encouragement from their father and confident in their abilities, Jenaisha and Lanish founded SS Textiles in 2017.
Initially, the business was limited to manufacturing three products: freezer, cane and school socks. However, the increased awareness of workplace safety in recent years created a gap in the market for various types of safety and uniform socks. Over time we identified key market demands and adapted accordingly by introducing new products to our customers. Through years of hard-work, determination and investment the company expanded and now offers more than 20 types of socks, such as terry (cushion), football, fashion, sport and specialised socks. We are proud of recently launching our anti-static and anti-microbial socks to the market.
Our business has grown substantially since its inception, and we believe this success was fostered by our dedication to manufacturing products of the highest quality, prioritising customer-satisfaction and addressing the need for locally manufactured socks in South Africa. We have built long-term sustainable relationships with our customers which we will continue to nurture. Our raw materials are all locally sourced and we have forged strong relationships with these small businesses, this has ensured that we always have raw material available to meet our production demands. Also partial to our success, is our dedicated team ranging from skilled to semi-skilled employees, all of whom are committed to delivering high-quality.
To stay relevant, we adapt to market trends and are also committed to upgrading our equipment as technology advances. In our efforts to be environmentally conscious, empty yarn spools, boxes and plastic bags are recycled on a weekly basis. We have also introduced the usage of recycled yarn and recyclable plastic bags at our plant.
As SS Textiles evolves, we aspire to become a leading sock’s manufacturer in sub-Saharan Africa and continuously add value to our customers.
