Lavé Apparel Industries (LAI) is a US, San Diego–based company with manufacturing and distribution facilities in the United States and nearshore vertical knit manufacturing operations in Mexico.

LAI specializes in quick delivery and a chaos-free Build-Your-Own Garment (BYOG) process, allowing customers to choose from pre-designed silhouettes or create fully customized garments using our extensive in-house fabric library — all with speed and control.

THE ART OF PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT

Everything we do, we believe in challenging the status quo in Product Development. We believe in thinking and doing things differently by giving you peace of mind by removing the chaos in the design process, which results in giving you an edge over the competition by giving you your very own quickly delivered unique styles.

LAI was founded in 2005 by industry veteran, Ody Demetriadi. Ody's 30+ years of well-rounded experience in the apparel industry has driven him to create LAI as the ultimate and one-stop solution for Product Development and Purchasing Managers representing Embellishing, Branded and Promotional Product companies.

Container shipping terminal

Partnering with LAI, our US based customers can take full advantage of USMCA (formerly NAFTA) versus dealing with offshore operations in faraway places like Asia, where distance and tariffs offer many challenges and uncertainty in pricing and delivery.
