Romania - Nota macchine tessili 2009

Conjuncture note concerning the textile sector in Romania – YEAR 2009
Fairs and exhibitions
• RomaniaFabricDays
International Fair for Fabrics, Accessories and Services for the Garment Industry
The next edition, the 11th, will be organized in the period March 17-18, 2011 at Parliament Hotel,
Bucharest.
The concept of ROMANIAFABRICDAYS is simple and clear. Romania, with the largest garment
industry in Europe, did not have a sourcing and information event before ROMANIAFABRICDAYS.
All existing fairs for textile, accessories, services, but also garment industry, were in reality
“Business to Consumer” exhibitions - a retail activity. At these fairs, the industrial and wholesale
companies sell items to the final consumer, who is looking for a good bargain.
AVANZ F.E. offers “Business to Business” events and professional fairs. The demand came from
sponsors and exhibitors, which pushed to do a professional fair in the sector for Romania, Bulgaria
and the region.
The main visitor target groups for ROMANIAFABRICDAYS are:
• Romanian and South East European garment manufacturers, producing their own product
ranges/ collections for export
• International purchasing/sourcing offices located in Romania an South east Europe as:
Hennes & Mauritz, Zara, S-Oliver, Marks & Spencer, Karstadt Quelle, etc.
• Fashion companies selling on the fast growing domestic and regional market
• Agents, wholesalers, distributors for fabrics, accessories and services
• Industry experts
• Press
Concerning exhibitions with products of light industry, in 2009 were organised 15 fairs while in
2008 were 17 fairs and in 2007 were organised 23 fairs, having as theme „textiles, ready-made
clothes, shoes and leather goods, fashion”.
