Algeria to host textile expo in April

The 2nd edition of Textyle-Expo will run from April 2 to 5, 2018 in Oran, Algeria. Despite the fact that the Algerian textiles and fashion industry significantly relies on imports, the Government is encouraging domestic production.

April 2 to 5, 2018 will see the 2nd edition of the International Textile and Fashion Fair - Textyle-Expo at the Mohamed Bem Ahmed Convention Center in Oran, Algeria. The event’s website revealed that the industry show’s first edition, in 2017, featured some 110 exhibitors and welcomed over 6,000 local and international visitors from countries including Tunisia, China, India, Taiwan, Turkey, the US and Europe.

Simultaneously along with the expo, a conference will take place in the Wahran Room of the Le Méridien Hotel. It will feature discussions on fashion, technology and markets with local and international industry specialists on the panel.

Panels will cover subjects including Algeria’s new investments law, the revitalisation of the country’s textile industry, the European consumer market and exports from the EU and the competitiveness of leather items.

A fashion shows will also be held, the same as in the first edition, with designers showcasing their collection. The Textyle-Expo website says only 6 per cent of clothing needs in Algeria are met by the domestic industry, with imports making up the remainder.
