A warp supplying apparatus comprising a warp gripping chuck for gripping a leading end portion of a warp thread, a cutter for cutting the leading end portion of the warp thread gripped by the warp gripping chuck, the cutter being provided above the warp gripping chuck, a suction nozzle that is provided below the warp gripping chuck and draws in a cut end portion of the warp thread cut by the cutter, a suction box provided between the warp gripping chuck and the suction nozzle for drawing in and guiding the cut end portion to the suction nozzle, the suction box being formed with a suction chamber and a slit through which the cut end portion is drawn in within the suction chamber by suction, and a warp conveying unit for conveying the cut end portion within the suction chamber from the warp gripping chuck to the suction nozzle. The suction box has a rear wall opposed to the slit and is formed with a pair of spaced side walls extending from the slit toward the rear wall to form a guide passageway for guiding the cut end portion to the rear wall of the suction box.
