Texworld & Apparel Sourcing Paris Returns This September

Texworld and Apparel Sourcing Paris are set to return for their Autumn 2025 edition from September 15 to 17, taking place at Halls 2, 3, and 4 of the Paris-Le-Bourget Exhibition Centre. This major international sourcing platform, organized by Messe Frankfurt France, will once again feature its co-located segments—Avantex (dedicated to innovation), Leatherworld (focused on leather and related materials), Texworld Paris, and Apparel Sourcing Paris—offering a comprehensive range for fashion buyers from mass-market to high-end.

Approximately 1,200 to 1,300 exhibitors are expected, matching previous targets and reflecting strong momentum seen during the February 2025 edition. The September dates have been carefully chosen to better suit international sourcing calendars and ensure peak attendance from industry professionals.

A wide range of textile-producing nations such as China, India, Türkiye, South Korea, Taiwan, and Hong Kong have already confirmed their participation, underlining Europe's importance in the evolving global trade landscape, especially amidst ongoing US-China trade tensions. Additionally, Central and Eastern European manufacturers, including firms from Armenia, Kyrgyzstan, and Ukraine, are expected to stand out with their exceptional craftsmanship and quality.

The show floor will retain a thematic structure to enhance sourcing efficiency. Avantex will be located in Hall 2, adjacent to trend forums, conferences, and service zones. Product universes such as womenswear and activewear will integrate raw materials and finished goods to create seamless sourcing experiences.

Leatherworld will reside in Hall 4, next to the Denim area, serving as a bridge between Texworld and Apparel Sourcing. Also at the Hall 4 entrance will be the "Initiatives by Texworld" showcase, highlighting country-specific expertise. Türkiye will present a special trend zone spotlighting its premium weavers, while India will showcase its world-class embroidery artisans.
