Industry · Home & lifestyle
Home and lifestyle is Asia Sourcing's 23-year category depth. We work with international retailers, DTC brands, department stores, hospitality specifiers and interior-design firms on seven linked categories — lighting, furniture, home décor, brass and metalware, home furnishings and textiles, giftware, and fashion accessories — out of the 15 Indian manufacturing clusters we cover.
The seven home & lifestyle categories we specialise in
Lighting — table lamps, floor lamps, pendants, wall lights, chandeliers; brass, metal and hand-blown-glass construction from Moradabad and Firozabad clusters. Furniture — solid wood, upholstered, metal, outdoor and hospitality lines from Jodhpur, Saharanpur, Jaipur and Delhi NCR clusters. Home décor — vases, mirrors, trays, bowls, candle holders, sculptures and seasonal décor from Moradabad, Jaipur and Khurja. Brass and metalware — spun, cast, chased, hand-engraved pieces from Moradabad. Home furnishings and textiles — bedding, cushions, throws, rugs, curtains and table linen from Panipat, Jaipur, Bhadohi and Varanasi. Giftware and tableware — ceramic, glass, brass, wood and mixed-media gifting from Moradabad, Firozabad and Khurja. Fashion accessories — leather, textile and metal accessories from Delhi NCR and Chennai.
Why home & lifestyle buyers choose Asia Sourcing
Our category specialisation is the differentiator. A generalist buying house that also handles apparel garments and engineered industrial goods will not have the finish-level depth in brass antiquing, lampshade former development, upholstery grade testing or hand-knotted rug programme management that a home-and-lifestyle buyer needs. We do not run apparel garments. We do not run engineered industrial goods. Everything we do is home and lifestyle, and we have been doing it since 2002.
International buyer profile
Our active book covers UK retailers, US department stores and DTC brands, German and Dutch home retailers, French and Spanish lifestyle brands, Nordic DTC labels, Canadian and Australian importers, and Middle-East hospitality specifiers. Country-level programme detail is documented on our regional pages (United Kingdom, United States, Germany, France, Netherlands, Sweden, Finland, Canada, Spain, Italy, Poland, Australia).
The engagement arc for a new home & lifestyle buyer
Typical new-buyer engagement runs: (1) intro call and category/volume alignment, (2) cluster recommendation and pre-qualified factory shortlist (5–8 factories across your categories), (3) factory audit on your top 3 picks, (4) sampling round and PPS sign-off, (5) first-container production, PSI and shipment, (6) buyer-side debrief and transition to a continuous programme if the first container succeeds. Elapsed time from intro call to first-container shipment is typically 14–20 weeks.
