Patbro Textiles – Fabric of Distinction!

From humble beginnings in Johannesburg’s iconic Commissioner Street, family run Patbro Textiles, established in 1946, has grown into one of the most distinguished wholesalers of basic, bridal, catering, fashion and uniform and corporate-wear fabric in the country.  

For the past 7 decades, Patbro has been at the helm of the wholesale textile industry. It is an industry that is most certainly defined by change and revolutionisation. Seasons change, trends come and go, but at Patbro Textiles, one thing has always remained constant – our business philosophy, which is driven by a resolute commitment to provide the retail market with only the highest quality fabric at the most affordable prices.

Our fabric is hand-picked from suppliers in India, Korea, Thailand, United Kingdom, Indonesia, Japan, Taiwan and China, and we are always exploring the world to bring our valued clients the best quality fabrics, the latest trends and the widest variety of lower to high-end textiles. Catering to a wide audience, including some of SA’s top fashion designers, leading catering firms and retailers across the country, our extensive range includes embroideries, denim, ramie,  printed and plain satin, silk, taffeta, organza, tulle, cotton, stretch cotton, linen, chiffon, lace, school wear, corporate wear, pongee and taffeta linings…

At Patbro, we strive to always meet the demands of our valued customers, and our team of dedicated sales representatives are always willing to go the extra mile! We do not believe in compromising on quality….and that is what sets us apart from the rest. Our commitment is to always supply the best fabric, to the best of our ability.

We invite you to visit our showroom, where you will be blown away by the fabric on offer, the affordable prices and our excellent customer service!
