Since its inception in 2004, Yarn Expo has gained popularity amongst industry professionals and continues to attract leading international and domestic exhibitors.

Acting as a trade channel between both foreign and domestic fabric manufacturers and local producers, Yarn Expo has become well established in the global textile market. This is a key factor for exhibitors’ return participation in the fair.

New exhibitors are also keen to meet with potential buyers that attend the fair each season. "We produce high quality fancy yarn using cotton, linen, mohair and wool,"comments Mr Chris Lee, Manager for Saint Andre Far East Ltd. "Although this is our first participation in the fair, we look forward to meeting new clients from around the world, especially from China, which is one of our biggest markets."
