Finding a Supply Source

[SgtZ]

Anyone have some good advice for locating an original manufacturer for a certain product? I hate doing internet searches for product manufacturers because all you end up getting is middle-men and re-sellers.

What's the best idea for getting to the source? Anyone?

Thanks!

Why would you want to work with the manufacturer? They usually only work with major distributors, who are the only ways to gain access to their products. This is almost always true for big manufacturers, but most smaller manufacturers distribute their own products.

www.thomasnet.com might have you want though.

go to alibaba.com its real good for searching products that are made all around the world... you can get good prices and directly buy from manufacturers...
