most important buyers and sellers
of the sector together once
more. 2.600 companies has met
with more than 40.000 purchasers
at the fair, which has taken
place between 30th March and
1st April. One of the most standing
out country has been Turkey
again at the APLF Hong Kong
Fair, which is defined as the place
where the heart of the leather
sector beats during the time it
is organised. Turkey, which has
been awarded many times during
the fair that is being organised for
27 years, has not broken the tradition
this time also. Cetinkaya
Leather, whose designs win great
recognition, has been awarded
for the Best Fashion Leather section.
An historical participation had
taken place at the fair under the
patronage of ITKIP, where companies
from Turkey had shown
excessive interest. ITKIP has been
representative of one of the largest
participating groups at the
fair with 39 participating companies.
An excessive amount of
international participation has
been seen at the Raw Materials,
Manufacturing and Technology
section, where the Turkish companies
had taken their places
and which is known as the place
for business connections directed
towards East Asia as well as
being an global business platform.

different countries ranging China
and Italy had come together with
1.700 participating companies
