In my best understanding, it sounds: "Because there are many people [buy?] the cloth, it gains popularity and always sold at a high price.". But I feel something wrong in this translation...
Judging by this https://tatoeba.org/eng/sentences/show/102295, から can be used to link 人気 to たくさんの人 - popular with many people, although it seems it's not the most common method. So, it's "cloth was popular with many people (and) he could etc"
