How to Contact or Visit Economy Textile

Economy Textile is a Winnipeg-based fabric and textile supplier with a retail store open to the public, so you can visit in person to browse fabrics, notions, and cleaning supplies, or use the Contact page on economytextile.com for custom orders and special requests. The site also offers an email signup for specials, sales, and events. Use the retail store for in-person shopping; use the contact page when you need a custom order or have a specific request.

Visiting the Retail Store

Economy Textile operates a retail store that is open to the public. If you are in or near Winnipeg, you can shop in person rather than ordering remotely.

What you can expect to find in store, based on the product listings on the site:

• Fabrics — batik, cotton (in many colour groupings such as pink, purple/beige, blue, black/brown, grey/red, yellow/orange/green), novelty prints, wide backing, flannel, fleece, furs/sherpa, Indigenous prints, Melton, minky, outdoor, upholstery, and vinyl
• Notions — bias/elastic/webbing, felt/zippers, ribbon, scissors/needles/pins
• Crafts — dog snuffle mats, reusable gift wrap, ribbon skirt kits, beads
• Cleaning and industrial supplies — absorbents/drop cloths, disposable gloves, linens, microfiber cloths, towels, wiping cloths and rags

Because the store carries both retail and wholesale inventory, it is worth confirming stock for a specific item before making a trip if you need a particular fabric or quantity.

Contacting Economy Textile

The website has a Contact Us page, which is the intended channel for:

• Custom orders for institutions
• Special requests
• Any inquiry that is not a standard retail purchase

The site explicitly invites customers to make contact with special requests, and notes that custom orders are available for many different institutions. If your needs fall outside what is listed on the product pages, the Contact page is the right starting point.

Wholesale and Bulk Purchases

Economy Textile runs a separate wholesale division that handles bulk purchases as well as wholesale prices. If you are buying for an organization, a business, or in large quantities, ask about wholesale terms through the Contact page rather than assuming retail pricing applies. The retail store and the wholesale division are distinct paths, so state which one you need when you reach out.

Staying Informed About Sales and Events

The site includes an email signup with the message "Be the first to know about specials, sales, and events." Signing up is the way to receive advance notice of promotions. This is separate from contacting the store directly — use it if you want ongoing updates rather than a one-time answer.

Quick Reference

Background Worth Knowing

Economy Textile describes itself as locally owned and operated for over 25 years, and states it has served customers for more than 40 years. Over 50% of its inventory is made from reclaimed products, which is relevant if you are sourcing materials with sustainability in mind. These details come from the company's own site, so treat them as the company's stated positioning rather than independently verified figures.
