Urban Expositions and the American Apparel & Footwear Association (AAFA) will launch a West Coast fall edition of Material World,
September 30-October 2, 2009, at the
Los Angeles Convention Center in California. Titled Material World West, the new edition will complement the well-established spring Material World Miami Beach event by bringing the extensive resources of the global fashion and style production event to a key target audience of apparel, home and footwear industry members from the Pacific Rim and United States, with special emphasis on the Western region.
Material World West is an official event of the American Apparel and Footwear Association and is endorsed by other leading associations, including the American Apparel Producer’s Network, California Fashion Association,
National Textile Association, and National Council of Textile Organizations. Material World West plans to work with other local and regional industry associations to benefit their membership.
* * *Entering its ninth year, the Miami Beach event, scheduled for April 21-23, 2009, capitalizes on the city’s undisputed position as an international trading hub and United States gateway to Latin America. It is also a city that naturally draws traffic from all over the US, Canada and Latin America. In fact, many of the country’s largest sourcing groups have set up their sourcing operations in Miami. For Latin America in particular, the Miami venue delivers a centralized trade show offering the largest fabric product and sourcing opportunities, technology and fashion information.
For 2009, both editions of Material World will also put a special spotlight on green products/services, performance, Technology Solutions and global matchmaking through special advance and on-site marketing efforts and focused educational tracks.
