GUANGZHOU SOURCING GUIDE
Visiting the Canton Fair? Plan a Custom Bag Factory Visit in Guangzhou
If you are sourcing custom bags while visiting Guangzhou for the Canton Fair, send your product brief and preferred visit dates before arranging a factory appointment. A useful visit reviews the actual carry requirements, materials, sample construction and next development decisions for your project; it does not replace sample approval or a written quotation.

What should you send before requesting a factory visit?
Share your company and target market, product category, reference drawings or authorized reference images, approximate dimensions, intended contents, quantity direction and desired launch window. Add the names and number of visitors and your available dates. The team must confirm the appointment and exact meeting location.
Cappuccino supports custom bag development discussions. Models and materials shown during a review are project references, not a promise of ready stock or immediate production availability.
What should buyers check for each functional bag project?
| Project | Bring or define | Review with the team |
|---|---|---|
| Padel bags | Racket dimensions and quantity; shoes, clothing and daily items | Racket access, compartment layout, shoe separation and loaded carry |
| Tennis bags | Longest racket profile and equipment list | Handle clearance, pocket layout, opening and carrying balance |
| Outdoor bags | Intended activity, payload and conditions of use | Straps, reinforcement, seam construction and proposed testing |
| Travel bags | Packing list, device dimensions and transport use | Opening, organization, handle attachment and loaded dimensions |
How do you turn sample handling into a useful development review?
Pack a sample with representative contents, then inspect access, balance and contact points. Open each pocket, check zipper clearance and handle the bag in the intended carrying modes. Separate appearance feedback from measurable requirements such as dimensions, pocket placement and strap adjustment.
Record the material article, lining, reinforcement, hardware, logo method and packaging direction in a written brief. Any water resistance, recycled content, strength or other performance claim requires evidence for the exact material or finished construction. Agree on tests and acceptance criteria rather than inferring performance from a showroom sample.
Which commercial details need written confirmation after the visit?
Ask the team to review MOQ by style, material and color, sample scope and fees, revision needs, packaging, quotation terms and the production window. These depend on the confirmed specification and order context; this guide does not promise a fixed MOQ or lead time.
Before leaving, list open decisions, who will supply each missing input and what the next sample must demonstrate. Keep the approved specification and sample record together so later changes can be evaluated.
