Texworld Apparel Sourcing Paris is returning for its 57th edition at the Paris–Le Bourget Exhibition Centre from 15 to 17 September 2025. For the first time, the event will feature a well-balanced representation of textile manufacturers (Texworld) and apparel manufacturers (Apparel Sourcing).
With nearly 1,300 exhibitors from over 35 countries, the Paris trade shows will present Europe’s most comprehensive and diverse sourcing platform. Buyers will have the opportunity to explore a vast range of high-quality textiles and garments across three days.
The Avantex sector will highlight cutting-edge innovations and sustainable solutions designed to address fashion’s major challenges, including transparency, traceability, and eco-responsibility.
This edition will bring together leading players such as China, Turkey, India, Korea, Taiwan, Bangladesh, and Pakistan, along with suppliers from Cambodia, Myanmar, Rwanda, Vietnam, and Egypt. Apparel Sourcing will host 683 exhibitors, achieving record participation on par with Texworld. The Near Sourcing Hub, powered by Foursource, will feature European manufacturers with growing physical presence.
