2015 Intertextile Shanghai Apparel Fabrics to Be Held in March 18-20 and October 13-15

Organisers of Intertextile Shanghai Apparel Fabrics, Messe Frankfurt announced dates for the Spring and Autumn 2015 editions for 2015 and also a new venue.

Intertextile Shanghai Apparel Fabrics – Spring edition takes place from March 18–20, 2015, while the Autumn edition will be held from October 13–15, 2015 at the National Exhibition and Convention Centre in Shanghai.

According to Ms Wendy Wen, senior general manager of Messe Frankfurt (HK) Ltd, next year’s Spring Edition is on track to be twice as large as the 2014 fair.

“Moving the Spring edition to Shanghai from Beijing this year created unprecedented demand from suppliers to participate,” she said.

“With the move to a new venue, we will be able to accommodate more exhibitors and expect the exhibition space to cover 100,000 square metres or double the size of this year’s fair,” she added.

The new venue – the National Exhibition & Convention Centre (Shanghai) – is a highly modern exhibition venue, and with 500,000 square metres of exhibition space, reportedly the largest in the world.

Of further benefit for exhibitors, it is expected that this new venue will attract more quality domestic buyers.

The fairground is located in the west of the city in Hongqiao, making it closer to the textile manufacturing hubs in surrounding provinces such as Jiangsu and Zhejiang.

It is also positioned very close to Hongqiao airport, as well as the Hongqiao transport hub which has high-speed rail, regular rail and bus connections with the rest of the country.

Yarn Expo Spring will once again be held alongside Intertextile Shanghai, while for the first time the 23rd China International Fashion Fair 2015, also known as CHIC, occurs concurrently as well.

“Together, these three events, which cover the entire spectrum of the textile value chain, will provide more business opportunities for exhibitors of all the fairs,” Messe Frankfurt said.
