| Know before using | It is a curated specialty-show community rather than complete regional coverage; confirm current participation, production geography, technical fit, minimums, capacity, and terms directly. | 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. | The workflow is not a contract or quality certification; local legal duties and technical review may still apply. |

| What the source establishes | The public showroom filters participating companies by plain, printed, and yarn-dyed fabrics, embroideries and laces, accessories, and design studios for specialist apparel markets. | 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. | The linked tool or guide is maintained inside Stitch Authority and was checked against its current public interface. |
