Texworld Apparel Sourcing Paris 2026 will bring more than 1,000 international exhibitors to Paris-Le Bourget from Aug. 31 to Sept. 2, as fashion buyers seek more resilient, flexible and sustainable supply chains amid continuing changes in global apparel sourcing.
The 59th edition of the trade fair will bring together textile manufacturers, apparel suppliers and fashion technology providers across Texworld, Apparel Sourcing and the Avantex sustainable fashion section. Organiser Messe Frankfurt said the event will provide access to nearly 1,200 international textile and apparel companies, while its broader exhibitor profile includes manufacturers from around 35 countries.
The event comes as fashion companies increasingly focus on reliable suppliers, competitive pricing and shorter, more transparent supply chains. Exhibitors will showcase fabrics and raw materials ranging from cotton and denim to knitted fabrics, silk, wool, functional materials and accessories, while Apparel Sourcing will focus on finished garments and fashion accessories.

Sustainability and innovation will also feature prominently. Avantex will highlight technologies and solutions aimed at making fashion more sustainable and higher-performing, while the event’s sourcing programme will include natural and recycled fibres, biodegradable materials, advanced synthetics and environmentally focused production processes.
Bangladesh is expected to have a significant presence, with 17 Bangladeshi companies scheduled to participate. Companies including Hoorain High Tech, NZ Denim, NZ Fabric, Nexgen Apparel and H&F Fashion will represent different segments of the country’s textile and apparel industry, alongside firms participating under the Export Promotion Bureau pavilion.
For Bangladesh’s export-oriented apparel sector, the Paris event offers an opportunity to strengthen relationships with European buyers and showcase capabilities as sourcing strategies evolve. The country’s participation also comes as global brands diversify supplier bases and place greater emphasis on traceability, sustainability and supply-chain resilience.
The three-day event is expected to provide a major meeting point for manufacturers and international buyers, reinforcing Paris’ role as a key European hub for textile and apparel sourcing.
