U.S. Manufacturing Marketplace
A B2B marketplace where entrepreneurs and brands search for American manufacturers, compare what they make and talk to them in one place.
The brief
01
For startups and growing brands, finding a U.S. manufacturer usually meant cold calls, trade shows and a lot of guesswork. There was no easy way to compare what factories could make, check whether they were a good fit, or keep production conversations in one place. That was especially true for apparel, accessories and lifestyle products.
02
Team members worked on a marketplace built around search and discovery. Brands filter manufacturers by location, capabilities, production volume and industry, then contact suppliers directly through messaging, file sharing and production timelines inside the platform. Data fetching, caching and rendering were built with performance in mind.
03
A production platform with multi-criteria manufacturer search, listing and capacity management for factories, messaging and file sharing, a reusable UI component library, admin workflows, onboarding and guidance modules, and monitoring and error reporting on the business-critical flows.
How it was built
Studied how brands look for production partners and defined the search criteria that matter when choosing one.
Designed B2B workflows and reusable components for both sides of the marketplace: brands and manufacturers.
Built search, listing management and collaboration tools, with attention to how data is fetched and cached.
Added monitoring and error reporting, and hardened the workflows that transactions depend on.
Key features
Filter and compare U.S. factories by capability, production volume, location and industry, and build a shortlist.
Messaging, file sharing and production timelines keep each sourcing conversation organised and on record.
Monitoring and error reporting watch the flows businesses depend on, so problems are noticed and fixed.
