Almost 400 international exhibitors are expected at the next Apparel Sourcing Paris trade fair, which will take place from Monday 14 to Thursday 17 September 2015. This represents a record since the fair was launched in September 2011 and an increase in excess of 40% over September 2014, when the event welcomed 289 exhibitors.
Michael Scherpe, CEO of Messe Frankfurt France, confirmed: “This growth shows that the event has established itself as the No.1 European trade fair for global garment sourcing. We have adopted the correct strategy for its development and are continuing to broaden its offer, which always puts an international range on show..â€Â
The ninth Apparel Sourcing Paris fair will include almost 90 new exhibitors from all points of the compass. Visitors will be able to benefit from a very varied, high-quality offer, from entry level to top of the range, covering all ready-to-wear for women, men and children, and accessories too.
Every aspect of fashion will be represented: knits, unstructured garments, casualwear, sportswear, denim, shirting, outerwear, evening wear, loun- gewear, businesswear, swimwear and corporate clothing. The accessories segment, a developmental focus of the fair, will also welcome bags, gloves, ties and scarves. Numerous solutions to the particular issues/ problems of the European market, which always attract strong interest from exhibitors because of the recovery, will also be highlighted.
