Eshanima Fabrics first started selling fabric in 1982. We are now distributing nationally, with our main focus being excellent service coupled with providing our customers with the finest fabrics at competitive prices.

The name ESHANIMA stems from the Steinbach family's first names - Hans, Esther, Nicole & Mark.
