The third Beijing Yarn Expo ends on high note

The third Beijing Yarn Expo ends on high note

Write: Ray [2011-05-20]
The third Chinese yarn event Yarn Expo in Beijing was wrapped up last week after a busy three-day run at a new venue: the China World Trade Centre.
Over 110 exhibitors from 10 countries were present, displaying yarn and fibre products for apparel and home textiles. Looking better and brighter than before, the fair ended on a high note.
The dynamic Chinese market and its potential for future sales was clearly the biggest draw for foreign exhibitors, and many came to meet agents and dealers in China, to make direct sales, and to create awareness about their company and brand.
"This is our third time at Yarn Expo and as always we are very pleased with the results," said Johan Vantomne from Procotex, a Belgian linen manufacturer.
"China covers 70 percent of our market and our participation in the fair is part of our overall marketing strategy," said Jean-Christophe Ponsin from Novalin, a French flax/linen fibres and yarns producer.
Nicola Sansour S from the Textiles del Sur SAC of Peru, a first time participant, agreed: "This fair is perfect for us. We have been selling our wool to the Chinese market for about five years as we recognized the countrys potential early on. It is always a good idea to participate at local trade fairs such as this one in order to make more contacts. We are very happy with the results."
Manufacturers of high quality and innovative products were especially happy with the feedback from domestic as well as overseas visitors.
