    Know before using

    Association membership and a profile are not a current product catalogue, certification check, factory-control record, or supplier assessment. Confirm legal identity, production site, process, fibre and construction, available capacity, minimums, price, sample evidence, claims, certification, labor conditions, delivery, and order fit directly.

    Finding a named India Handloom Brand store or producer outlet by location and product before asking about cut fabric, dress material, finished goods, stock, and purchase terms

    Know before using

    The directory covers the India Handloom Brand scheme population, not every Indian handloom seller, weaver, market, or fabric shop. A store record does not prove that a particular product, length, colour, lot, size, claim, certificate, price, shipping route, accessibility need, cultural-use right, or project requirement is currently available or suitable. Confirm the exact branded item and purchase evidence directly.

    Discovering Sri Lankan handloom, batik, and related textile businesses by district before confirming whether they sell fabric, finished products, or production services

    Know before using

    Profiles are business-submitted, moderation is discretionary, and the platform publishes paid highlighted-listing tiers. A profile, featured position, review, or registration field is not supplier approval and does not prove current operation, legal standing, products, facility, fabric availability, fibre or dye claims, price, minimums, quality, labor conditions, accessibility, shipping, or project fit. Confirm directly.

How this stays useful

A directory is only as good as its last check.

01Every external listing points to an official source.

02Access, audience, region, and the last check are visible before you click.

03Source verification is never presented as a provider-quality audit.

04Every listing has a correction route and a written limitation.

05Checks and material changes stay visible in an append-only maintenance trail.

Can you find, compare, and challenge a textile resource?

Complete three realistic tasks on your own device. The runner records an anonymous session code, task outcome, one friction category, and timing. It does not ask for your name, email, free-text notes, audio, video, or screen recording.

Self-guided sessions expose search and labeling problems but remain separate from the moderated validation target.
