Première Vision and Tarsus are joining in an operational and financial partnership in the Mod'Amont accessories trade fair. An agreement has just been signed by these two show organisers calling for Première Vision SA to buy, on 1 January 2008, 49% of the capital in Sepic SAS, owner and organiser of Mod'Amont, in the framework of a global project of partnership for the activities and development of this accessories trade fair.

The leading international trade fair of trimmings and supplies for fashion and design, Mod'Amont was created in 1996, and is held twice a year, in February and September, at the Parc d'Expositions de Paris-Nord Villepinte, in the framework of Première Vision Pluriel, a unique ensemble of professional events that also brings together Première Vision (fabrics), Expofil (yarns and fibres), Indigo (textile designs), and le Cuir à Paris (leathers and skins).

The last session of Mod'Amont, held from 18 to 21 September 2007, brought together some 300 exhibitors from 24 countries, presenting a diversified offer of buttons, buckles, zippers, labels, ribbons, badges...as well as feathers and rhinestones intended for all fashion sectors (apparel, leather goods, footwear), and packaging products. It welcomes nearly 19,000 visitors, 67% of whom come from abroad. Mod'Amont had a turnover of 4.8 million euros in 2007.

The partnership created between Tarsus and Première Vision will allow Mod'Amont to strengthen its efficiency within PremièreVision Pluriel, as well as accelerating its development, especially abroad, in the wake in particular of shows organised by Première Vision in fashion's major markets.
