Buying kids’ clothing in Salem
Salem is a steel and textile city in the Tamil Nadu interior, surrounded by mango orchards and hill country.
Children’s clothing is outgrown rather than worn out, so it comes onto the local market in genuinely good condition and usually in bundles. Buying a stage at a time from someone a few streets away is far cheaper than buying it new.
What to check in person
Go through a bundle piece by piece rather than accepting a count, since the bottom of a bag is where the tired items sit. Hold pale colours to the light for the food and grass marks that photographs never pick up.
Collecting it in Salem
It fits in a bag, so most people meet on the way to something else. A station or a high street works, and neither side needs a car.
The city is easy enough to drive with reasonable parking and the industrial areas are distinct from the residential ones. Heat is severe for much of the year.
