Bulls Say, Bears Say

Bulls

Gildan has dominant market share in printwear basics and has invested in a low-cost production and distribution process to maintain its position. Demand for imprintables has recovered since a significant drop during the pandemic.

Bears

The Hanesbrands deal is the largest in Gildan’s history and brings execution risks. Hanesbrands has had inconsistent results over the years, and the branded basics market is competitive.

Company Profile

Gildan is a vertically integrated designer and manufacturer of basic apparel, including T-shirts, underwear, socks, and hosiery. It is a leader in blank T-shirts, sweatshirts, and other apparel to wholesalers, major clothing brands, and printers (printwear). Gildan also sells branded clothing through retail and direct-to-consumer channels, a business that was greatly enhanced by the Hanesbrands acquisition in 2025. Gildan’s labels include Hanes, Bali, Maidenform, Playtex, Gildan, American Apparel, Comfort Colors, and Goldtoe. Gildan produces most of its clothing at factories in Latin America but has been ramping up production at its new facility in Bangladesh. Incorporated in 1984, the Montreal-based company operates internationally but generated 90% of its sales in the US in 2025.
