Buying in India is great fun, but not without some challenges. I exported homewares and furniture for around a decade and have been recently working with fabric suppliers and boutique clothing manufacturers.

Having learned many lessons through hard experience, I can suggest reputable options for suppliers and provide guidance through the process.

If you're interested in joining a sourcing tour, please contact me.
