Exhibition introduction

In November 2006, France Fatex Clothing and Apparel Trade Fair was held in Paris Nord/Villepinte, covering an area of 10000 square meters. Founded in 1984, Fatex is a top professional exhibition in garment manufacturing, home textile, garment accessories and accessories and other related garment industries. Since November 2001, the exhibition has been held in the same exhibition hall with another famous exhibition, Interselection, to attract thousands of businessmen. Fatex does not focus on brand promotion, but demonstrates the processing and supply capabilities of exhibitors. It is the best platform for domestic enterprises providing OEM production to show their products, technical level and production and processing capabilities to French, European and international buyers. The exhibition is highly professional and has a large purchase volume, which is suitable for the establishment of long-term cooperation between the supply and demand sides. At the same time, there is a press conference on fashion trends in the industry at the Fatex exhibition site, and a clothing manufacturing forum is held at the same time, so that exhibitors can understand the latest trends of international ready to wear production and operation and the fashion trend of the international clothing industry while participating in the exhibition.

According to customs statistics, from January to October 2004, the trade volume between France and China reached 17.46 billion euros, of which France exported 4.52 billion euros to China and imported 13.21 billion euros from China. During the same period, the trade volume between France and Japan was 13.24 billion euros. China has surpassed Japan as France's largest trading partner in Asia. In 2004, there were nearly 400 FATEX exhibitors from 34 countries and regions, and more than 60% of international exhibitors outside France, mainly from North African countries such as Eastern Europe, Morocco and Tunisia, and Asian countries such as Chinese Mainland, Hong Kong, Taiwan, South Korea and Japan; Among them, manufacturers account for more than 80%, suppliers account for about 5%, and textile equipment and design enterprises account for 15%.

In November 2005, Fatex received more than 8000 guests, including 53% of purchasers and decision-makers from chain stores, exclusive stores, supermarkets, mail order stores and other channels, 38% of clothing designers and high-end clothing enterprises, and more than 9% of international wholesalers and professionals.

At present, clothes sold in the French market. 70% of them are imported from abroad. Among the top ten importing countries, China has become the main supplier of French clothing. However, the potential of Chinese clothing exports to the French market is still great. The French are still enthusiastic about buying clothes, and the market is far from saturated. As the production cost is too high, French garment enterprises are decreasing year by year. In order to meet the market demand, France will continue to expand garment imports. As France occupies an important economic position in EU countries, its successful entry into the French market provides an opportunity to occupy the markets of other EU countries.

During the same period, the Interselection exhibitors were mainly professional manufacturers and traders. It was one of the six major professional exhibitions under the French Knitting Industry Association. The merchants were mainly large retailers and purchasers. The exhibits included all aspects of clothing products, mainly mid-range products. The exhibition has a history of 26 years, with nearly 400 exhibitors and 9000 professional merchants attending each session, which is one of the famous fashion exhibitions in Paris. Enterprises planning to participate in the exhibition can also register at the same time.
