Dearborn Sourcing

Founded by several architects in 2020, Dearborn Sourcing imports building materials and lighting products and supplies to catering and entertainment companies in the US. I took three business trips to Mainland China this year to look for reliable OEM suppliers who can produce customised lighting products for our company, but I couldn’t find any suitable manufacturers. I am so happy to have attended the Hong Kong International Lighting Fair (Autumn Edition) for the first time because I have found five potential suppliers who can meet my requirements through the HKTDC’s Click2Match service. These potential suppliers offer track lights, optics and drivers for track lights, decorative lights and LED strips. I will purchase US$500,000 worth of lighting products through this fair. The Autumn Lighting Fair is an efficient and one-stop sourcing platform for all kinds of lighting products. I’ll definitely come back next year and also recommend this fair to other lighting companies in the US.
