Saigontex 2016 textile exhibition showcased Taiwan’s textile prowess

Saigontex 2016 textile exhibition held in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam this year concluded successfully under the slogan “Think Taiwan for Textiles” where the Taiwan Textile Federation (TTF) promoted the island’s textile industry under the three themes of fashion, function and eco-friendliness.

The Taiwan Textile Federation (TTF) also promoted the island’s unique sample at this year’s exhibit including eco-textiles, function and fashion textiles, dyes and trimmings.

The TTF’s Textile Export Promotion Project (TEPP) was organized by Taiwan’s Ministry of Economic Affairs’ Bureau of Foreign Trade and promoted the textile industry by organizing trade missions, collaborating meetings and the attendance of international shows.

The quality of Taiwan’s textile prowess is indicated by its partnerships with brands such as Decathlon, Oasis, Thai Tuan, Garmex, Lime Orange, Vinatex, Poong In and Walmart.

Export to the Vietnamese textile market has grown in recent years due to the countries trade ties under ASEAN and future regional trade agreements such as the Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP) and the Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership (RCEP).
