Well, Indonesian's textile producer is located in Bandung (west java- 2hrs drive from jakarta) and they have a lot of fashion outlet leftover and they are building a lot of fashion outlets store selling their leftover. In the case, you want to contact them, you can start searching from this fashion outlets and it will link you to the manufacturers too. Try the yellow pages In the sense of smaller quantity, you might want to start searching from not the biggest first.

What you need is a sourcing partner. You need to contact a company that that knows all the factories related to textiles in that country and they can advise you on what different factories would charge you and the avg quality level coming from that factory. They will also help you in terms of the logistics of moving out of the country. If the company big enough / professional enough they can also advise you on the legalities and can put people in the factory you choose to make sure quality standards are maintained. A lot of factories can be dealt with directly. try www.alibaba.com to find thousands of such factories. But I gaurantee you, you are making a big mistake if you do not take professional advice. Textile trade is getting more and more regulated, and less and less profitable from China. Perhaps better to look at Vietnam. Anywa, my advice remains that you need to talk to a professional if you're serious. www.alibaba.com www.madeinchina.com www.tradeboss.com
