Some US manufacturers are on Alibaba, and I am planning to list us also one day soon. Just select the countries you want, and they will filter the results for you.

If you know what kinds of stuff you want to make, look for someone who builds similar stuff and ask if they take outside work. Some will, some won't.

The manufacturing communities can be fairly well knit also, so if the first company you call can't help you, they might know someone who can.
