Despite current travel restrictions, 15 British companies are participating in the show, and will be represented on their stands by in-market agents or distributors. Five of these companies are participating under the Department for International Trade’s Tradeshow Access Programme (TAP), coordinated by UKFT, which supports the export development of eligible British companies.
“Despite the recent challenges of the Covid-19 pandemic and Brexit, the UK textile industry remains dedicated to providing its customers, both at home and abroad, with the usual high levels of service and assured quality and workmanship that it is renowned for delivering,” said Paul Alger, director of international business at UKFT. “The creative skills and inspired technical talent that are such an integral part of the fabrics produced by the British mills, remain the driving force of an industry that strives to bring the world amazing and original collections each season.”
