The co-located event continues to create opportunities to support the textile and apparel sourcing community by connecting global manufacturers and suppliers to the US market and serves as a place of inspiration for designers, buyers, and industry professionals alike, organiser Messe Frankfurt said in a press release.

Texworld NYC offers a wide product range covering the entire fabric spectrum, from casual cotton to functional fabrics and sophisticated knits to intricate laces. Apparel Sourcing NYC provides attendees direct access to suppliers specialising in ready-to-wear for men, women, children, and accessories. The expansive July event is set to feature over 60 product categories from hundreds of worldwide exhibitors including pavilions from Korea, Taiwan, and Uzbekistan. Attendees can easily find exhibitors offering ethical and sustainable products, low minimum order quantity (MOQ) manufacturers, and North American suppliers on the show floor.

More than just sourcing, Texworld NYC is a forum for the industry to learn and stay up to date on the latest innovation in textile and state of the trade industry. The summer 2023 programme, composed of Textile Talks, Explore the Floor, and the Lenzing Seminar Series, is designed to offer insightful and informative sessions for every role and level of experience across all segments of the industry. The Texworld Trend Showcase also returns to the show floor with the latest material innovations and colour palettes for the Fall/Winter 2024-2025 season, curated by New York-based agency, Doneger | Tobe.

Making a triumphant return to the show floor, Home Textiles Sourcing will showcase over 150 international exhibitors representing a multitude of countries including Turkiye and China. As a long-term join venture partnership between Messe Frankfurt and CCPIT-TEX, Home Textiles Sourcing is the only event in North America to solely focus on fabrics and finished soft goods for all home applications. Held annually alongside Texworld and Apparel Sourcing NYC, the show provides manufacturers, retailers, jobbers, converters, contract specifiers, and designers a dedicated avenue to locate new fabrics and products for their latest home collections. In addition to sourcing, visitors will also be able to take advantage of interactive workshops, home-specific educational seminars, and discover the latest in home textile trends.

Following a successful winter debut, Printsource New York will return to bring expanded product offerings and resources to buyers. Printsource serves as a hub for the world’s top creative talent and showcases hundreds of collections by international surface and textile design studios.

The show is a key resource for thousands of apparel, paper goods, and home textile manufacturers, retailers, and catalogues. Product categories include men’s, children’s, and women’s apparel, bed and bath, decorative fabrics, kitchen and tabletop, paper goods and stationery, wall coverings, window fashions as well as other surface and textile design applications.

Global Footwear Sourcing, a special feature area in partnership with Material Exchange and Footwear Distributors and Retailers Association, will also return to the show floor this July. The showcase will feature a wide range of product categories including shoe material components and finished footwear from both physical and hybrid manufacturers.

In addition to the attendee-favourite Lenzing Seminar Series, long-time Texworld NYC partner, Lenzing will re-introduce its exhibitor pavilion with a multitude of sustainable offerings.
