Filters

State

You can filter by state if you’re looking for a local factory or have a preference toward a specific state. This is particularly helpful if you are considering producing locally. Which you might want to consider:

Industry

The industry refers to the type of products that the factory is producing. Starting on the factories page, you have two options: Apparel & Accessories and Furniture & Home Decor.

From there, both split up into various categories. Here are some examples of categories included for Apparel & Accessories:

Capability

If you choose the apparel or accessories industry option it will give you the option to select certain capabilities that you may need help with: ideation, pattern-making, sourcing, sample-making, tooling, or production.

Search View

Grid

Grid view offers you more factories on a single page, however offers slightly less information. It includes the capabilities, an excerpt of the factory description, location, whether they are a preferred factory, and buttons to save the factory, take a note or get a quote or estimate.

List

List view offers you less factories on a single page, but they include all the information from the grid view, in addition to longer descriptions and the company’s response rate.
