About Da Gama Textiles

Da Gama Textiles is one of South Africa's oldest and leading textile producers, covering a wide range of textile requirements for both the local and export markets.

Our core divisions are Home Sewing, Furnishing and Workwear /  government tenders. 

The cornerstones of our business are the niche branded products we produce, including internationally recognised brand names such as Three Cats and Three Leopards Original Shweshwe in addition to special finish Workwear fabrics.

We have been manufacturing fabric since 1946 and constantly strive to be innovative in our product offering - specifically within our Home Sewing division. Our Company has embraced the objectives of broad based economic empowerment, and as such, implemented a broad based company ownership scheme 5 years ago, the effect of which was to transfer 60% of the ownership of the company indirectly to employees of the company.

We are especially committed to our wholesalers, retailers and workwear garment manufacturers and do not sell directly to retail consumers.
