Intertextile Shanghai Home Textiles – Spring Edition
Intertextile Shanghai Home Textiles – Spring Edition 2012 has
been moved forward to the beginning of spring and will take
place from 29 February – 2 March, accommodating China’s peak
sourcing season for bedding and upholstery sectors. Next year,
the fair will also be held in a new venue, with better
facilities: the Shanghai World Expo Exhibition and Convention
Centre.
Last year’s show attracted 9,755 buyers while 96% attending
came from China. “To meet the demand of our Chinese customers, I
find it necessary to source in the spring season,” said Ms Qi
Wen, owner of Wuxi Ruyi Curtain, a domestic buyer who welcomes
the date change.
“Positive visitor feedback proves that we are moving in the
right direction with the new show dates, which will better serve
the domestic Chinese market,” said Ms Wendy Wen, Director Trade
Fairs for Messe Frankfurt (HK) Co Ltd. “Apart from the Shanghai
spring fair, we also offer two additional home textile events in
China, covering the entire industry value chain,” she added.
Intertextile Shanghai Home Textiles Spring focuses on the
domestic market while the Autumn edition reaches a worldwide
market from 28 – 30 August 2012 at the Shanghai New
International Expo Centre in Pudong, Shanghai. Both editions are
organised by Messe Frankfurt (HK) Ltd, the Sub-Council of
Textile Industry, CCPIT and the China Home Textile Association (CHTA).
Further complimenting the range of home textile events in
China is Intertextile Guangzhou Hometextile China that features
upholstery suppliers and buyers. The fair organised by Messe
Frankfurt (HK) Ltd, the Sub-Council of Textile Industry, CCPIT,
the China Home Textile Association (CHTA) and the China Foreign
Trade Guangzhou Exhibition Corp takes place from 18 – 21 March
2012 at the China Import and Export Fair Complex in Guangzhou,
China.
