| Primary job | Source production | Source production | Find patterns & fit |
| Area | Production | Production | Patterns & fit |
| Best for | Searching global apparel and textile production capabilities | Building a Taiwanese yarn, fabric, apparel, trim, or related-service supplier longlist with category filters and public company or product profiles | Auditing inherited grade rules or controlling a new multi-size pattern release from approved targets through sample evidence |
| Know before using | The company count is a changing platform claim. Search fields, profiles, certificates, locations, and account access do not independently verify the legal entity, factory ownership, capability, capacity, certificate validity or scope, compliance performance, delivery, or project fit. Confirm the site and subcontracting, credentials with issuers, samples, audits when appropriate, specifications, contracts, and commercial terms. | Platform and company pages supply their claims. The federation's curated-event language does not establish that every directory profile is audited, qualified, or approved. Directory presence does not prove legal identity, ownership, manufacturing location, current capacity, capability, certifications, labor or environmental practices, quality, minimums, price, lead time, intellectual-property controls, compliance, or project fit. Counts change, some profiles have no products, and in-platform inquiry requires an account even when public contact details are visible. Verify each candidate independently. | The record does not create a production grade, supply universal increments or breakpoints, validate a CAD file or fit population, reproduce licensed standards, or replace qualified anthropometric, pattern, technical-design, fit, quality, accessibility, safety, statistical, and user-research review. |

| What the source establishes | FOURSOURCE's current public network page presents an operator-reported global company count and country or territory search. It says logged-in users can narrow results by compliance certificates, product groups, fabric types, target groups, minimum order quantities, and other fields, with a free-trial and supplier sign-up route. | At review time, the public supplier route reported 207 companies across 18 result pages and exposed filters for yarn, fabrics, apparel and accessories, trimmings, and related products and services. Supplier profiles showed declared company descriptions, categories, products, contact details, addresses, and websites where supplied. TaiwanTextiles identifies the Taiwan Textile Federation's trade-promotion role. | The guide cites current ISO body-table, size-designation, and garment-measurement boundaries plus two peer-reviewed studies that tested the relationship between conventional grade rules, anthropometric evidence, and garment fit; it requires product-specific target deltas and validation instead of publishing universal increments. |
