Asia Fashion Fair (AFF) will be held in Japan from October 21 to 23. This is Japan’s biggest and most professional clothing and textile fair. It attracts the country’s largest selection of readymade garments, accessories, home textiles, fabrics and auxiliary materials. The AFF expo was founded in 2003. It is a continuation of the China Fashion Fair. The show held twice a year attracts 300 to 400 exhibitors from China, Japan, Korea and their factories in Burma, Bangladesh, India and Cambodia.
With an exhibition area ranging from 6,000 to 15,000 sq. mt, recent editions of the show have boasted some 300 to 500 booths and more than 5,000 buyers, 85 per cent of whom stay on-site for at least one hour. AFF exhibitors have rich experience working with Japanese enterprises. They can handle all kinds of demands regarding Original Design Manufacturing, high function, fast fashion and low prices.
On an average, each exhibitor meets more than 50 active customers, the share of new targets accounting for 60 per cent. Selected activities such as press conferences, fashion shows, seminars and cocktail parties will be held concurrently with the fair to widen the scope of reaching out to the stakeholders.
