The fairs will be held at the same venue, National Exhibition and Convention Center (Shanghai) alongside CHIC and PH Value.

The organisers reached this conclusion after careful evaluation and discussion with stakeholders.

Ms Wen continued: “On behalf of the organisers, I would like to express our thanks to all participants for their continued understanding and support. We look forward to providing an effective sourcing platform for the textile industry.”
