Textile Tower Market

Textile Tower Market is exactly what its name suggests — a vertical commercial building on Ring Road housing fabric showrooms and mill sales offices rather than a horizontal row of shops. This format tends to appeal to buyers who want more direct contact with mill representatives, cutting out some of the layers between manufacturer and buyer.

Because it's organized by floor rather than by aisle, navigating Textile Tower Market works a little differently than a typical Ring Road bazaar — it helps to know roughly which floor houses the category of fabric you need before you arrive, or ask at the entrance for direction.

• Ask at the entrance which floor to head to — the vertical layout means categories are organized by floor rather than laid out in one visible row.
• Good for buyers wanting mill-direct relationships rather than layered wholesale-through-retailer chains.
