For global B2B buyers, the Canton Fair has long been the premier destination for discovering premium suppliers, touching materials firsthand, and locking in partnerships for the season ahead. But travel constraints, packed schedules, or shifting sourcing strategies shouldn't mean missing out on what matters most: finding the right products, at the right quality, with a supplier you can trust.
At Winko, we've built a remote sourcing process specifically designed for serious buyers who can't make it to Guangzhou — but refuse to compromise on quality or creative collaboration. This season, our newest collection, Woven Glow, is fully accessible from anywhere in the world.
Here's exactly how it works.
Step 1: Explore the Woven Glow Digital Catalogue
Your sourcing journey starts with our Woven Glow digital catalogue — a carefully curated PDF featuring the full collection with clear product photography and detailed specification sheets.
Browse at your own pace, share internally with your buying team, and shortlist the pieces that align with your next range — all before a single conversation takes place.

Step 2: Request Physical Material Samples
Screens can show you everything — but your hands will confirm it. Once you've shortlisted items from the lookbook, request physical samples directly through your access portal.
Every sample package from Winko ships with:
• Full material spec sheets
• Available finish and colour options
• Packaging configurations and retail-ready suggestions
Our logistics team works with buyers across North America, Europe, and beyond to ensure samples arrive quickly and are ready to evaluate. Include your company name and region when requesting, so we can recommend the most cost-efficient shipping option for your location.
Step 3: A Virtual Consultation — Face-to-Face, From Anywhere
Digital browsing tells you what a product is. A conversation tells you whether it's right for your business.
Book a complimentary 20-minute video consultation with one of Winko's product specialists. In this session, we cover:
• Technical material details and production tolerances
• MOQ flexibility and tiered pricing structures
• Custom branding and OEM/ODM possibilities for your next collection launch
• Lead time expectations and regional shipping logistics
This step is where remote sourcing becomes genuine partnership — not just a transaction.
→ Book your consultation directly through the confirmation email once your sample kit has been dispatched.
Step 4: Submit Your OEM/ODM Brief
Ready to move from discovery to development? Winko's structured OEM/ODM briefing process removes the guesswork from custom manufacturing.
Using our briefing template, you'll outline:
• Design intent and inspiration references
• Target retail market and end consumer profile
• Price point and production volume targets
Within three working days, our design team will respond with initial mock-ups or counter samples for your review and approval — keeping your development timeline on track.
