The Yarn Expo Spring 2023 trade fair is set to take place from March 28-30, 2023 at the National Exhibition and Convention Center in Shanghai, marking the first in-person trading event for international yarn and fibre suppliers since China reopened its borders earlier this year.
The event will span an impressive 27,000 square metres, with major zones dedicated to showcasing fancy yarn, cashmere yarn, wool yarn, linen yarn, cotton yarn, chemical fibre, and overseas yarn.
Organiser Messe Frankfurt has confirmed that nearly 450 exhibitors from 10 countries and regions will participate in the fair, including Cotton Council International (CCI) from the US. The event aims to attract buyers from China and beyond and will feature several key Chinese exhibitors, including Sateri, Jiangsu Yueda Cotton Spinning, China Petrochemical Corporation, and Tongkun Group.
The Yarn Expo Spring trade fair will also feature a fringe programme that will cover the latest industry trends and innovations.

The three-day event will feature several fashion shows, including the China Fibres Fashion Trends Show 2023/2024 and the Restart and Remodelling Denim Fashion Show.
