Texworld Paris Set for Sept with 1300+ Global Exhibitors

Texworld Apparel Sourcing Paris, a flagship textile sourcing event, returns for its 57th edition from September 15–17, 2025 at the Paris-Le Bourget Exhibition Center, bringing together 1,300 textile and apparel manufacturers from over 30 countries. Organized by Messe Frankfurt France, this global trade fair is a key opportunity for European and international fashion brands to connect with top suppliers.

Texworld Paris will host nearly 600 manufacturers from top producing nations like China, India, Türkiye, South Korea, and Taiwan. The curated Elite Area will highlight premium suppliers like Alok Industries (India), noted for men’s cotton fabrics. Meanwhile, the Denim sector continues to grow with 30 international companies presenting both fabrics and finished goods.

Launched in February, the Initiatives zone will return at Hall 4’s entrance, spotlighting live fashion craftsmanship by LISAA Mode students and featuring innovation from Pasari Textiles (India), the Istanbul Chamber of Commerce, and China Textile Innovation Center (CTIC).

At Apparel Sourcing Paris, the exhibitor count climbs to 600, driven by rising participation from Bangladesh, China, India, Hong Kong, and Pakistan, the latter presenting a “Sustainable Pakistan” pavilion. There will also be manufacturers from Cambodia, Myanmar, Rwanda, Vietnam, and Egypt, reflecting a growing emphasis on flexibility and quality in sourcing.

Central and Eastern Europe are in focus this year, with national pavilions from Armenia and Kyrgyzstan, plus representation from Serbia, Romania, Portugal, and others in the Near Sourcing Hub, each product linked to the FourSource B2B digital platform for sourcing ease.

Julien Schmoll, Marketing & Communication Director, stated:

“In today’s tense economic climate, this edition reflects the ongoing reshaping of global supply chains… We’re seeing a resurgence of finished apparel offers from countries like China and India, a shift toward near sourcing, a growing demand for product innovation, and diversification of supply.”

Avantex, the section for sustainable fashion and technology, expands with 30 exhibitors, including:

NIL Textile, showcasing a PLA-based T-shirt from corn
T-Fashion, an AI-powered design platform
Materra, winner of the 2024 Avantex Fashion Pitch, promoting a “Cotton-As-A-Service” model

Avantex will also host three days of keynotes, roundtables, and workshops on topics such as circularity, AI, eco-design, and new EU regulations. A highlight is the Bio Fashion Innovation Day on September 17, organized by TCBL.

The 8th Avantex Fashion Pitch will spotlight startup innovations in fashion-tech-sustainability. Applications are open until July 15, 2025.

Texworld, Apparel Sourcing, Avantex, and Leatherworld will all run simultaneously, offering free entry with professional credentials, creating a comprehensive sourcing hub in Paris this September.
