After the success of Texworld USA in July, the leading sourcing show will be returning to the Javits Convention Center next week. Texworld USA is a dynamic industry event and business platform bringing together the best apparel fabric, trims and accessory suppliers in the heart of New York City from around the world.

Over 240 exhibitors and new manufacturers will be showcasing their latest fabrics for Texworld USA's Winter Edition 2018 in NYC. The show floor will feature exhibitors specialising in cotton, denim, embroidery, lace, functional fabrics and more.

Meeting platform

“It’s no secret that consumer buying patterns are changing quickly and that the customer is looking for more value than ever when purchasing apparel,” said Jennifer Bacon, Show Director, Fashion & Apparel. “This is impacting brands and our buyers and therefore, we are focused on curating a group of exhibitors that offer a wonderful product at a great price. Ultimately, our buyers can visit other textile or apparel shows to network and get inspiration on trends, but Texworld USA is the show to find in-demand, on-trend fabrics at realistic and affordable prices. We’re an order writing show, now more than ever.”
