Submit a manufacturer
PlushSource lists custom plush manufacturers that build to a buyer’s own design. If that is your factory, we can add you — and the listing links straight to your own website, so every enquiry reaches you directly.
The online form is not open yet
We are building a self-serve submission form. Until it is live, email [email protected] with the details below and we will compile your record by hand, the same way we compile every listing on this site.
What to send us
- Your company name and the website address we should list. The site has to be reachable and identifiable as the business behind the name — a record cannot be built from a directory profile alone.
- The page on your website where you state that you build plush to a customer’s design — custom, OEM, or ODM work — rather than only selling stock products. This is the first thing we check.
- A contact email address for the listing.
- The country, and city if you publish one, where you produce.
- What you make: the plush product types, and the services you offer — custom, OEM, ODM, prototype and sampling, mass production, custom packaging.
- Any commercial fact you publish that a buyer can act on: a minimum order quantity, a sample turnaround time, or toy-safety certifications such as EN71, ASTM F963, CPSIA, CE, or BSCI.
- If you are already listed and want the record corrected or removed, say so and include the URL of your existing listing.
How we review a submission
- Each record is compiled from your own website and from public certification and export information. Fields you do not publish are left empty rather than estimated.
- We do not audit factories. A listing is not an endorsement, a ranking, or a quality guarantee — it is a record of what you publish, with the date it was last updated.
- We do not handle quotes, samples, payments, or orders. Terms are agreed directly with you.
The full test — what earns a listing, what each record is built from, and what a listing does and does not claim — is documented in our listing criteria and verification process.
Frequently asked questions
What makes a manufacturer eligible for a PlushSource listing?▶
The first test is that your own website states you produce plush to a customer's design — custom, OEM, or ODM work — rather than only selling stock products. We also need at least one commercial fact a buyer can act on: a minimum order quantity, a sample or prototype service, a production location, or toy-safety certifications. Plush has to be a named part of what you do, not an incidental product line.
How long does a submission take?▶
We reply by email once we have checked your website. Publishing takes longer than a reply, because every field on the record has to trace back to something you actually publish — a field you do not state is left empty rather than estimated.
Can I update or remove my listing later?▶
Yes. Every listing shows when its record was last updated, and where we quote your own words the quote carries the date we checked it. You can ask us to correct or remove a record at any time from the contact page.
Does PlushSource handle quotes, samples, or orders?▶
No. PlushSource is a directory, not a marketplace. We do not take quotes, samples, payments, or orders — every listing links to your own website, so the buyer contacts you directly and you deal with them directly.
