Explore Southern Africa’s Textile & Apparel manufacturing industry
USAID Southern Africa Trade Hub (SATH) will hold an invitation-only textile and apparel buyer-seller meeting on June 20-21, 2011 at the Cape Town International Convention Center. The event will match regional textile and clothing producers with international and regional garment retailers, brands, and wholesalers.
CCA is recruiting members to attend and participate in a series of pre-arranged 30 minute meetings between international apparel buyers, Southern African retailers, regional apparel manufacturers, and regional textile and garment trim suppliers. The pre-arranged meetings provide a cost-effective and efficient platform for buyers, manufacturers, and suppliers to explore and negotiate possible business relationships.
In 2009, this event involved more than 400 meetings between 60 companies from 14 countries with sales estimates in excess of $10 million. This year all delegates will be provided a detailed description of each of the companies attending and, in particular, what they are looking to source, outsource, sell, or to link with yarn, fabric, trim, and/or apparel companies. Movable hanging racks will be provided as all vendors are required to bring samples.
