| Know before using | CFDA states that it collects basic business information but does not audit, certify, or monitor the listed facilities, and that inclusion is not endorsement, recommendation, a quality guarantee, or CFDA membership. Verify identity, ownership, capabilities, materials, equipment, minimums, capacity, price, lead time, quality systems, labor and environmental practices, compliance, references, contracts, and product fit directly before selection. | Coverage is quilting-specific and uneven by country; businesses can pay for enhanced features, and community or owner updates do not verify inventory, service quality, hours, or availability. | An orientation rather than a completed product record; it does not supply a universal format, licensed standard content, measurements, tolerances, construction settings, labels, approvals, compliance conclusion, or product-release authority. |

| What the source establishes | CFDA publishes this as an open-access directory of United States fashion contract manufacturers with no registration required. The page supports sorting by service, product, category, and sample or production minimums. Its current notice says the application link is under repair and directs join, update, removal, and other inquiries to supplychain@cfda.com. | QuiltMap describes free public search and free basic listings, community submissions and claims, and country routes covering North America, Europe, Japan, South Korea, and Australia. | The guide cites published ISO sources for documented-information, garment-measurement, stitch, and seam boundaries plus current U.S. FTC textile and care-labeling guidance; it discloses that ISO 10013:2021's 2026 systematic review is at close-of-review stage and separates every cited authority from product-specific technical and market decisions. |
