Messe Frankfurt France is providing a new digital platform
The organiser of the international textile fairs Messe Frankfurt France teamed up with Foursource to offer a digital platform for Fashion fairs: Apparel Sourcing, Avantex, Leatherworld, Shawls&Scarves, Texworld and Texworld Denim Paris
"This platform will enable exhibitors from Messe Frankfurt France tradeshows - textile and clothing manufacturers, brands, accessory manufacturers - to present their collections and their know-how to international buyers through a complete digital networking solution", the organisers said. The online platform will feature, amongst others, virtual showrooms and matchmaking options.
Buyers can use a specific section to define their requests and build their collection based on selection criteria designed for the textile world: country, minimum quantities, type of service, certificates, etc.
Organisers believe that with the 15 000 visitors of Messe Frankfurt France tradeshows and the 15 000 professionals already registered on the online sourcing platform, nearly 30 000 textile and clothing professionals will be able to benefit from this tool.
Available from the 1st of September onwards on the respective trade fair websites, this solution will be offered exclusively and for a renewable period of 6 months to exhibitors at the February edition (1st-4th February 2021) of the Paris trade fairs. The organisers believe that this will help to "maintain a working relationship between buyers and manufacturers and support them in their projects between two editions of the Messe Frankfurt France trade fairs".
