Shanghai (China) is all set to host the 3-day 2017 Spring edition of Intertextile Shanghai Apparel Fabrics tomorrow. The global apparel fabrics and accessories industry is gathering in Shanghai for the event. More than 3,300 exhibitors from 26 countries and regions will take part at the world’s largest trade event for the Spring/Summer season at National Exhibition and Convention Center.
“With 2016 certainly a challenging year for some in the industry, we found that this fair became even more important for our international exhibitors and buyers as a key meeting place where business was still being conducted,” Wendy Wen, Senior General Manager of Messe Frankfurt (HK) Ltd. (organizers of the show) said, adding, “After strong growth in recent years, the current scale and quality of the fair, particularly with the industry-leading brands that both exhibit and source here, now makes this event an unrivalled business platform for the global industry to connect with the Chinese market, and vice versa.”
The SalonEurope section at the fair will once again house the Milano Unica Pavilion, as well as the France & Germany Zones. In addition, Asian Pavilions from India, Japan, Korea, Pakistan and Taiwan, and Group Pavilions by Dyetec, Convergence Institute of Natural Materials and Lenzing will be featured alongside individual exhibitors from numerous countries.
