The 2016 spring edition of Intertextile Shanghai Home Textiles concluded successfully with wide praise from both exhibitors and buyers.



The three-day trade fair attracted more than 12,000 visitors to source from a total of 182 exhibitors.

For the first time, the spring edition was held concurrently with four other textile events: Intertextile Shanghai Apparel Fabrics – Spring Edition, Yarn Expo Spring, CHIC – China International Fashion Fair and PH Value – China International Knitting Fair.

Wendy Wen, senior general manager, Messe Frankfurt, HongKong, said, “We believed that we would get a strong response bringing the fair back in March being the peak sourcing period for finished products in China, as well the fair taking place concurrently with four other textile show. Many of them reported to us that they’ve found ample new business opportunities and shared their optimistic prediction for the industry’s future development.”

Both exhibitors and buyers appreciated the spring edition being held together with other textile fairs

Zhu Renjun, marketing division manager, National Dadong, an exhibitor at the fair said, “March is the decision making month of the year as well as the peak sourcing season in China hence more buyers tend to place orders during this period. I think not only is the visitor flow stronger, but the buyers’ quality is also higher than the past. We’ve already connected with our target buyers in the fair.”

Andy Yan, manager, Weihai Dishang Kenny Fashion, a buyer at the event, said, “I came here to source both home textiles and fashion garment products. Nowadays, there’s more cross-cooperation between different textile sectors within the industry, so this kind of ‘all-in-one’ industry event is generating more business opportunities.”
