With participants gearing up for this week’s Yarn Expo Autumn 2023, the value of China’s highly skilled labor force, advanced manufacturing technologies, and extensive distribution network – the most sought-after attribute for global players – is as apparent as ever. As Asia’s largest and most comprehensive yarn and fibre trade platform, the fair is set to leverage China’s strengths as a dominant player in the global yarn market, while also attracting major overseas suppliers. During the three-day show from 28 – 30 August 2023, over 500 exhibitors will gather in Hall 8.2 at the National Convention and Exhibition Center (Shanghai). 

By showcasing innovative yarn and fibre products as well as eco-friendly cotton, and green products across its 27,000 sqm of exhibition space, the fair will illuminate future trends and stimulate market growth. Along with the fair’s six other major zones, specifically Cotton Yarn, Chemical Fibre, Fancy Yarn, Linen & Ramie Yarn, Wool Yarn, and Cashmere Yarn, the Overseas Yarn Zone will house over 100 global suppliers from 14 countries and regions including Bangladesh, Belarus, China, France, Hong Kong, India, Indonesia, Japan, Pakistan, Singapore, Taiwan, The Netherlands, Uzbekistan, and Vietnam.

Increased international participation from both exhibitors and visitors gave the industry a major boost at the previous spring edition. Mr Mingxia Chen, Deputy Director of the Marketing Department, Dongfang Shenghong was delighted to connect with new overseas business contacts. “Yarn Expo provides us with a platform to maintain relationships with long-term customers, exchange ideas with partnering brands, and reach out to new clients. As a matter of fact, we have established many new contacts here this year, and many of them are overseas customers who are interested in products that are low-carbon, eco-friendly, and renewable.”

To meet the latest industry demands, the fair’s 2023 edition will demonstrate up-and-coming segments of the yarn and fibre industry through feature product zones:
