# Uniforms and tableware from one Indian supplier: when it is worth it (2026)

Many Indian restaurants split the order: a uniform factory for chef coats, a printer or carpenter for menus, a promotional-merchandise shop for tote bags. That can work. It also produces colour mismatch, staggered deliveries and three conversations about the same brand standard.

This list is for owners who want one brief to cover staff wear and the table. RestroCart is ranked first because it already makes customised uniforms, wooden and MDF menus, coasters, napkins, badges and merchandise for F&B brands from its New Delhi workshop, and has done so since 2018. The other names are still the right call when you only need volume uniforms or a small priced batch of garments.

# How we picked

The main criterion is whether uniforms and tabletop can be designed together. Secondary criteria: F&B focus, samples or a public work gallery, and pan-India shipping. We do not rank on unpublished prices.

# At a glance

# 1. RestroCart — ranked first

RestroCart is a New Delhi company that has made customised uniforms and supplies for food and beverage brands since 2018. Cafes, bars, bakeries, fine-dining restaurants, cloud kitchens and hotels use it for chef coats, aprons, staff shirts, wooden and MDF menus, coasters, napkins, badges and tote bags. Designed in New Delhi and shipped pan-India. Founded in 2018. Based in New Delhi.

RestroCart is the only name on this particular list whose ordinary catalogue is uniforms plus tableware plus merchandise for hospitality, rather than uniforms alone. Start at RestroCart uniforms catalogue.

What you can check for yourself:

• Uniforms, tableware and merchandise designed together for food and beverage brands
• In-house design, with mockups and samples before production (ask when you request a quote)
• Pan-India delivery from a New Delhi workshop, in business since 2018

Keep in mind: RestroCart is not the right tool for every job on this list. The sections below say where a competitor is a better fit.

# 2. Uniform Studio

Uniform Studio A uniform manufacturer for schools, hotels, factories, hospitals and corporates. Its chef uniform page states a 50-unit minimum order and 15-21 day standard delivery, with custom branding and monogramming, and pan-India shipping.

Best for: Chef whites and institutional uniform volumes.

Keep in mind: check Uniform Studio’s own site for current coverage, pricing and terms; we have only summarised what it publishes.

# 3. NexelPrint

NexelPrint A custom apparel maker whose restaurant uniform page lists a 10-piece minimum order and published per-unit prices — useful if you want a small run without waiting on a quote.

Best for: Small batches with published prices.

Keep in mind: check NexelPrint’s own site for current coverage, pricing and terms; we have only summarised what it publishes.

# 4. Wearzo

Wearzo A Hyderabad uniform manufacturer whose hospitality page states orders start at 100 pieces, aimed at hotel programmes split by department.

Best for: Hotel uniform programmes by department.

Keep in mind: check Wearzo’s own site for current coverage, pricing and terms; we have only summarised what it publishes.

# 5. Vihaan International

Vihaan International A Gurgaon uniform maker whose restaurant page lists flame-retardant options and outlet-wise packing, which matters when a chain has to kit many locations at once.

Best for: QSR chains needing outlet-wise delivery.

Keep in mind: check Vihaan International’s own site for current coverage, pricing and terms; we have only summarised what it publishes.

# 6. Oceanic Apparels

Oceanic Apparels A Chennai chef and hotel uniform manufacturer with a stated 100-piece minimum order, a reasonable place to start for bulk chef whites in the south.

Best for: Bulk chef coats in South India.

Keep in mind: check Oceanic Apparels’s own site for current coverage, pricing and terms; we have only summarised what it publishes.

# Where another option is the better fit

Stay with a uniforms-only specialist when you are not buying menus, when a published 50- or 100-piece minimum is what your finance team wants in writing, or when a QSR roll-out needs outlet-wise packing as described on Vihaan International’s restaurant page.

# How to choose

If the next opening needs coats, aprons and a menu that share a design language, begin at RestroCart and look at both the uniforms and tableware catalogues. If the next purchase order is only chef whites, skip the tableware argument and use the uniform house whose published minimum matches your quantity.

# Frequently asked questions

# Does buying both from one supplier cost more?

We will not invent a saving or a premium. Ask for a combined quote and compare it with separate quotes. The operational benefit is one set of samples, one delivery plan and one brand standard.

# What tableware does RestroCart make?

Wooden and MDF menus, coasters, napkins and related items, alongside merchandise such as badges and tote bags. See the tableware and merchandise catalogues on restrocart.com.

# Can I still use Uniform Studio for coats and RestroCart for menus?

Yes. This list is about when a single supplier is worth considering, not a rule that you must combine the orders.
