This set of eight fairs, related to fashion, trade and production, taking place simultaneously, constitutes a very voluminous and diversified offer, catering to a broad spectrum of the commercial, creativ, and production chain. Thus, local visitors and those coming from different regions of the world can access a comprehensive view of the sector in one place. For exhibitors, it represents a unique opportunity for contacts and business with regional and international buyers.

More than 3,500 brands from various origins participate in the eight fairs. In addition to Italian and European brands in general, other represented countries include: France, Spain, Germany, Turkey, Brazil, Portugal, the United Kingdom, India, Japan, and China.

The arrival of 45,000 buyers from all six continents is expected.

In line with global trends, the fair organizers noted that the common thread of the events will be the green of sustainability, referring to the selection of raw materials and production practices that are environmentally and socially conscious. The Green Innovation Pact will be the new growth strategy based on a modern, resource-efficient, and competitive economy.
