Texworld Paris and Premiere Vision Paris are two extremely important fairs for textile and ready-made clothing companies from Bursa, which exported more than 1.5 billion dollars in the first half of the year. Thanks to the fairs we participated in as UTİB, we provided the opportunity for our sector representatives to deliver their products to more buyers and to establish new collaborations, while also enabling them to gain a vision about current developments and the future of the sector. I believe that the meetings held at the fairs, where we met with great interest from the visitors, will make great contributions to Bursa's exports, especially to our country."
