| Know before using | 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. | 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. | 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. |

| What the source establishes | 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. | 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. | 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. |
