As part of a forward-thinking initiative to empower the American supply chain, Texworld NYC is thrilled to introduce a new partnership with SEAMS, the foremost association and voice of the US sewn products industry for over 50 years. Consisting of more than 200 of America’s foremost fashion brands, retailers, manufacturers, and textile providers, SEAMS is the most relevant force and go-to resource shaping the growth and resurgence of ‘made in America’, Messe Frankfurt said in a press release.

Texworld NYC's Local Sourcing segment has long been a focal point for attendees seeking domestic offerings and resources. The expansion, coupled with the partnership with SEAMS, enhances the show’s ability to provide a dynamic platform for exhibitors and attendees alike.

“We are thrilled to partner with Texworld NYC this January as SEAMS’ made in America movement continues to gain momentum and success.  We look forward to adding value to this important event and meeting the participants,” said Will Duncan, executive director of SEAMS. 

“SEAMS is focused on domestic manufacturing and resources, building our industry’s strength through knowledge and experienced resources, and this partnership is a perfect unified front for the industry we serve,” said Ron Roach, SEAMS’ president.

In addition to exploring expanded domestic sourcing offerings inside the SEAMS Supply Chain USA Pavilion, attendees can also take advantage of newfound educational opportunities. Participants can engage in discussions with SEAMS industry leaders as they delve into the keys to their success, sharing real-life examples of thriving supply chain partnerships and challenges they've overcome.

“This growth is a response to the escalating demand for US-based solutions, and we're proud to partner with SEAMS to amplify this message. Together, we're creating a dynamic space that not only showcases the best of American manufacturing but also provides a platform for meaningful conversations and collaborative learning,” said Jennifer Bacon, vice president of fashion and apparel, Messe Frankfurt Inc.

Registration is open for the co-located January event consisting of Texworld NYC, Apparel Sourcing NYC, and Printsource.
