Two mega shows on home textile, fabrics & accessories set to open its doors at one venue in Bangalore from 23 to 25 May at Gayatri Vihar, Palace Ground, Bangalore, informed organizer in a press statement.

Fabrics & Accessories (F&A) Trade Show and HOMTEX 2013 - India International Home Textile Exhibition - as two high profile trade exhibitions will showcase a wide range of products and services for the benefit of the textile value chain, it said.

Fabrics & Accessories Show, celebrating 10 years of its existence, will bring together manufacturers and suppliers of apparel fabrics, trimmings, embellishments and textile related services, while India International Home Textile Exhibition will provide buyers access to the latest products in home decor.

"Fabrics & Accessories Show has grown steadily over the last decade is a true reflection of the trust and confidence imposed in us by both the exhibitors and the visitors. For exhibitors, they are able to meet new customers and generate new business every year, and for visitors, they are able to identify new products and suppliers year after year," said P. Krishnamurthy, CEO, S S Textile Media Pvt Ltd, Bangalore, organizers of the show.

This premier sourcing event has grown year-on-year to emerge as a strong brand in the value chain. Exhibitors at the show comprise large and medium suppliers from India and overseas, who will be showcasing their contemporary range of fashion fabrics and accessories. 15 China companies will be presenting their products alongside their Indian counterparts.

The major highlight at this edition of the F&A Show will be the diverse product range from old suppliers and many of whom are participating for the first time. Thus, trade visitors can expect to make new contacts and access new products.

Overall, the F&A Show promises to be high on deliverables, meeting the exacting standards of the textile and fashion industry.

Another high value show - the India International Home Textiles Exhibition (HOMTEX) has attracted quality companies from across India, which includes small, medium and large players.

The exhibition will provide trade buyers, comprising wholesalers, retailers, buying houses, buying agents, single and chain store retailers an opportunity to network with suppliers and gain access to products under Bed, Bath, Kitchen, Upholstery, Made-ups & Flooring segments.

Still in its nascent stage, HOMTEX holds great promise considering the growing Indian economy and the demand for home decor products. The fact that this show is held alongside the F&A Show, presents strong synergies.
