Brandit Textil GmbH, based in Cologne, operates wholesale as well as import and export of goods and sells specifically outdoor articles, workwear, vintage clothing, armywear, streetwear and sport and leisure articles under the Brandit label. The goods are produced almost entirely to the company's specifications in the Asian region and are labelled with the Brandit brand. The business model focuses on long-term servicing of the target group, high product availability (Never out of Stock) and generous inventory holdings; in the 2023 financial year inventories were deliberately reduced by about TEUR 14,277 (-32%). In addition, backpack production was switched to recyclable fabrics and a 100% subsidiary (Brandit Wear Inc.) was established to prepare market entry into the USA.
