The Intertextile Shenzhen Apparel Fabrics fair, which will take place from 6-8 November 2023 at the Shenzhen World Exhibition & Convention Center, will help industry players tap into the market recovery and regain international orders.
The fair has gained immense industry support, with over 880 exhibitors from eight countries and regions and over 42,000 visits from 26 countries and regions in its previous edition.
According to Research and Markets, the Chinese textile market is predicted to grow at a CAGR of over 5% from 2020-2026. Wilmet Shea, GM, Messe Frankfurt (HK) Ltd, is confident that the fair will continue to be an effective platform for participants to make the most of this promising market.
Shenzhen, China's fastest-growing city, is home to over 2,500 clothing brands, with the vast majority self-owned. Shenzhen's garment exports reached USD 7.6 billion in the first three quarters of 2022, increasing by 9.8% YoY, with a sharp rise in exports to ASEAN countries, the UK, and the US.
The fair’s fringe programme, including Intertextile Apparel's signature Trend Forum, seminars, and product presentations, will provide an ideal platform for exhibitors to showcase their latest products to quality buyers from across the globe. With the return of international participation, participants can also maximise their trading opportunities by utilising the fair's online platform, Intertextile Hub.
The fair is held concurrently with Yarn Expo Shenzhen, CHIC GBA, and PH Value, offering the opportunity to source from the entire textile value chain.
