What a Silk Way tour around this show adds
We pair your Intertextile days with mill visits and verification for the fabric suppliers you shortlist on the floor — so a promising swatch becomes a checked, sample-confirmed order.
See how business tours workThe risks of sourcing from China — and how we remove them
Every importer faces the same handful of failure points. Here's what each one is, and what we do about it.
01Paying a trader's hidden markup
We verify the supplier is the actual manufacturer and show the factory price separately from our fee, so you never overpay a middleman.
02A 'factory' that turns out to be a shell company
We check business licenses, capacity and history, and visit the site in person before you commit a single payment.
03Losing the deposit to fraud
Funds go to Silk Way Sourcing under one contract, not to an unknown account, and the balance is tied to an inspection you approve.
04Receiving goods that don't match the sample
An independent pre-shipment inspection checks quantity, dimensions and quality against your spec, with a photo report, before anything ships.
05Goods stuck at customs over paperwork
We prepare and handle export and customs documentation end to end, so shipments clear without costly holds.
