Last week, we had the opportunity to participate in the ASIA FASHION SHOW in Jakarta, Indonesia. To be honest, the results were not as strong as we had hoped. Although the exhibition attracted a large number of visitors, the proportion of visitors who were closely related to our business and had genuine purchasing potential was…

Our main business has always been bag hardware. For more than two decades, we have focused on developing and manufacturing metal components for bags and leather goods. But over the years, we have also received requests for products that are quite different from what we normally produce. One example is the guitar capo shown here.…

When it comes to bag hardware, quality does not end when the product leaves the production line. How a component is packaged and transported can also have a direct impact on its final appearance — especially for hardware with polished, high-gloss, or otherwise delicate surfaces.

Hardware is the last thing most people think about. Until something goes wrong. Have you ever wondered why two snap hooks with identical specs are quoted at $0.30 and $1.20, or why a finish that looked perfect on the sample faded within six months? Why This Sourcing Guide? Sourcing bag hardware shouldn’t feel like a…

Today, I revisited Shiling Leather Market – the heart of China’s leather goods supply chain. Walking through the streets, I saw more than half the shops closed. It is a stark contrast to the bustling, shoulder-to-shoulder crowds I remember when I used to visit with my parents as a kid. So, what is happening there?
