Yard: Polish Lingerie

In this series, TLP will narrow our coverage of lingerie around the globe and focus on the country of Poland. Poland has a long history of textile manufacturing and since the collapse of the Soviet Union, Poland has been embracing market economies. Freed from quotas and mandated manufacturing, many Polish textile companies are stepping on to the world stage.

Yard is a manufacturer of seamless garments. Their offerings are not restricted to lingerie. The web site is available in English and Polish and is Flash based. Yard has been in existence since 1994 and unlike many of the companies profiled in this series, Yard will act as a manufacturing partner allowing your own designs to be manufactured at their modernized plant using their Santoni machines. The minimal order is 2000 pieces for each design. You can buy from their company store at http://www.yard.pl/catalog/index.php, but it is only in Polish. Briefs from Yard run about 8 zt or about $3.70 US or £1.70 UK.
