Bursa Textile Show (BURTEX) brought together textile industry representatives and foreign business professionals at Merinos Atatürk Congress and Culture Center for the 8th time on October 18-20. 133 companies exhibited their fabric and accessory collections at the fair, which was organized by KFA Fuarcılık, one of the affiliates of BTSO, with the support of the Ministry of Trade, KOSGEB and Uludağ Textile Exporters’ Association (UTİB). More than 500 foreign buyers from more than 40 countries, mainly Russia, Spain, Italy and the United Kingdom attended the fair. Garments produced entirely by TTN member companies at every stage, from yarn to fabric, from design to finished product, were presented to local and international buyers at the ‘Turkish Textile Network (TTN) Natureverse Reflect Vol.1’ event held on the evening of the fair.

UTİB President Pınar Taşdelen Engin, in her speech at the opening cocktail of the Bursa Textile Show, which has become one of the well-known fairs of the sector, underlined that the fairs contributed greatly to the Turkish textile’s trend-setting position. Saying: “It was a fair where the companies here benefited from the buyers attended. The textile industry is so well located in Bursa that we are in a city where all stages of the supply chain are produced,” Engin emphasized that the Turkish textile industry is an industry that makes incredibly fast decisions and takes quick action. Engin stated that they set the year-end export target as 1.4 billion dollars and disclosed: “We have a textile history encoded in our DNA and in our culture.”

“Bursa Textile Show is an important platform for collaborations”

Pınar Taşdelen Engin, underlining that the fairs contribute greatly to the spreading of Turkish textiles to the world markets, said: “I believe that BURTEX, which brings together buyers from more than 40 countries with the leading companies of our textile industry, will be an important platform for very beneficial cooperations. We have proven many times to the whole world that we are a reliable and sought-after supplier country. One of the biggest forces behind all these successful works is our ability to integrate the R&D, innovation and design culture into our industry, which enables us to reach the standards of developed countries.” Relaying that while doing these, they both make exports sustainable and continue to increase the share of sustainable products, Engin disclosed: “We will not stop working with our entire ecosystem to strengthen the Turkish textile and apparel industries’ deserved solid position.”
