FABULA is a woven shirt and knitted polo shirt manufacturer based in the Aegean region of Turkey. FABULA started operations in the summer of 2016 and currently employs 130 highly skilled associates. It is focused on high quality, small lot production of Ready to Wear and Made-to-Measure garments. Production is supported by state of the art technology but relies on the manual skills of its team to deliver high quality sophisticated product. Speed of delivery and immediate access to 3000+ fabric options are two other important assets of FABULA.
