“The Vietnam Trade Promotion Agency (Vietrade) recognized the need for an international trade exhibition in Vietnam and approached Messe Frankfurt to organize it. The event, Vietnam International Trade Fair for Apparel, Textiles and Textile Technologies (VIATT) aims to strengthen trade relations between China and Vietnam, as well as other countries in the region.

The goal is to create a collaborative environment rather than a competitive one, with the aim of benefiting the entire Asian textile industry”.

Alexandro Barberis Canonico President Milano UnicaAlexandro Barberis Canonico, President, Milano Unica, on impact of the pandemic on the textile industry and the return of Milano Unica to the Intertextile Shanghai fair. 

“Market is slowly recovering and luxury products are still performing well. Italian manufacturers are focusing on niche markets and special fibers, such as cashmere and vicuna. Creativity and sustainability are important factors for Italian manufacturers, who are investing in the Chinese market. The exhibition response has been positive, with better figures than in 2019. The trends in the Chinese market are about functional fabrics and the use of natural fibers”. 

Yuko Watanabe Director International CommunicationYuko Watanabe, Director International Communication, JFWO on business scenario in japan

 “Japanese domestic market, particularly in the department store and textile industries, is facing challenges due to the pandemic and rising costs. Although, online shopping is growing but offline stores are struggling. The weak yen has made exporting raw materials to China and other countries less profitable, while importing goods has become expensive. The tourism industry has also been affected, with only wealthy tourists able to travel to Japan, international tourism can help the domestic market to some extent, but it is not enough to fully recover”.
