Which documents do buyers ask for at a sourcing show?

Certificates, a capability sheet with numbers and, increasingly, traceability examples. A supplier that can show lot records and inspection data answers more questions than one with a larger brochure.

Is a show meeting enough to start a project?

It starts the relationship; the project starts with files. Gerbers, BOM and assembly notes are what turn a conversation into a DFM review and a quotation.

PCB Assembly Manufacturer -- Hitech Circuits at the Global Sources Electronic Components Exhibition in Hong Kong AsiaWorld 2026, Booth 11T06, Hall 11 on April 11-14th

The show

Global Sources brings component and electronics suppliers together at AsiaWorld-Expo. For us it is a chance to meet buyers who are comparing sources rather than only prices.

What we showed

Capability data for fabrication and assembly, plus the sourcing side: whole-BOM purchasing, incoming inspection and obsolete-part handling.

Follow-up

Send the project to [email protected] and mention booth 11T06, so we can match the enquiry to your conversation at the show. Files make the next step concrete. What happens to those files is described under china pcb manufacturer: DFM review, quotation, then tooling.
