Really hoping someone in Suzhou can help me reach a local textile company — I've hit a wall after months of trying
Hi everyone,
I run a small textile materials startup in India, and I'm reaching out here because I've genuinely run out of ideas and I'm hoping someone in this community might be able to help.
I've been trying for months to get in touch with a manufacturer based in Suzhou ; Suzhou Lifei Textile Co., Ltd. (苏州市利飞纺织品有限公司)
Address: No. 221 Sudai Road, Huangqiao Town, Xiangcheng District, Suzhou City, Jiangsu Province, China - 215132 ,
About a fiber sourcing and technical collaboration that matters a lot to my company's next steps. I've sent emails, gone through sourcing intermediaries, tried every channel I could think of from overseas and I haven't been able to get a single response. I know that's not unusual for cold outreach from abroad, but I'm at the point where I could really use some local help.
If you're based in Suzhou, work in textiles or manufacturing, or just know how business introductions tend to work there, I would be so grateful for any guidance at all even something small, like:
- A better way to reach a company like this (I've heard WeChat works far better than email for this kind of thing, but I don't have a way in)
- Someone who can visit this place if you are crossing by and get me some email or a contact
- Or just honest advice on how to get a first response from a Suzhou-based manufacturer as an outsider from India
I'm happy to share more details by DM, and I'd genuinely appreciate even a small pointer in the right direction. Thank you so much to anyone who reads this, it means a lot.
