[email protected]What is the India Sourcing Atlas?
A free map of 87 Indian manufacturing clusters, organised by 25 process families, 22 materials and 48 product families. Each cluster page lists what the city is known for, its nearest seaport and inland container depot, the languages on the factory floor and nearby clusters.
Where does the data come from?
Cluster profiles come from the SourceSquid India Cluster Map, compiled from Government of India MSME cluster studies and our own sourcing work. GI data comes from the Geographical Indications Registry of the Government of India. Distances are straight-line from the city centre.
Does the Atlas name individual factories?
No. The Atlas maps places and processes. When you send a brief, SourceSquid returns a named shortlist of factories in the right cluster, screened on evidence and audited on site.
Found the cluster? Get the named factories.
Send one drawing, photo or quote. We return how it is made, the right cluster and named factories screened on evidence, and a realistic target price.
