Frequently Asked Questions
When is Heimtextil India 2026?
Heimtextil India 2026 is scheduled for 18–20 June 2026 at Pragati Maidan, New Delhi (dates subject to Messe Frankfurt India confirmation).
How is Heimtextil India different from Bharat Tex?
Bharat Tex is the giant horizontal mega-fair. Heimtextil India is smaller, more curated, and exclusively home + contract textile — better signal-to-noise for hospitality buyers and home brands.
How do I get started with Small World India?
Send us your product specs or reference images via the contact form. Within 48 hours we shortlist 3 vetted factories with FOB pricing, MOQ, and lead times — at no cost.
What is the typical MOQ for sourcing from India?
MOQs range from 100 units (jewelry, handicrafts) to 5,000+ units (textiles, packaging). We negotiate flexible MOQs for first orders and combine SKUs across factories when needed.
How does Small World India ensure product quality?
Every order includes factory audit, mid-production inspection, and pre-shipment AQL 2.5 inspection by our in-house QC team. You receive photos, videos, and a full inspection report before shipment leaves the port.
Which countries do you ship to?
We export to 50+ countries with primary buyer concentration in the USA, UK, Germany, France, Netherlands, Australia, Canada, UAE, and Japan. We handle FOB, CIF, and DDP terms.
What are your fees?
Standard sourcing commission is 5–10% of FOB value, billed only after you confirm a PO. Inspections and freight are billed at cost with no markup.
Why source from India instead of China in 2026?
India offers FTA duty advantages with UK/AU/UAE/Japan, no Section 301 tariffs for US importers, English-speaking factories, lower IP risk, and competitive pricing in 25+ verticals including apparel, decor, jewelry, leather, and engineering.
