Individualization, automation and digitalization: micro-factories are the way forward for the future of clothing production. Texprocess, Frankfurt/Main, the international trade fair for processing textile and flexible materials with its 2019 edition from 14 to 17 May will display the main theme broadly and prominently.

What builds a fashion capital in China? In Shenzhen, it’s a strong 70% share of China’s high-end women’s wear market, around 30,000 fashion designers and over 2,000 fashion retailers. What’s more, the city benefits from the South China market’s status as a significant trading hub, as a key area of the central government’s new Belt and Road Initiative, supported by Guangdong’s solid garment manufacturing industry. From 4 – 6 July 2019, exhibitors and trade buyers alike will be able to capture this market potential at Intertextile Pavilion Shenzhen.

The spring event of CHIC China International Fashion Fair, Asia's largest and most important fashion and lifestyle fair from 12 to 14 March 2019, has again successfully completed with 103,722 visitors.

Back-to-back visitor increases of 15% have solidified Intertextile Apparel’s status as a global apparel textile flagship. 94,661 visitors[1] from over 110 countries & regions attended the fair (2018: 82,314, 104 countries & regions). Aisles in six exhibition halls saw a sea of visitors, as the quality, variety and innovation of the textile options on offer impressed trade buyers from all over the world. Reports of strong onsite order levels belied concerns of a slower economy and trade disputes – suggesting that, at Intertextile Shanghai Apparel Fabrics, there is always potential to be found.
