The three-day textile exhibition witnessed over 100,000 visitors, and deals worth more than $300 million were registered,

Chinese companies participated in a big way at this year's event. Companies from Europe, especially Germany, will be invited to participate at the 15th International Textile Asia Exhibition to be held in August next year. (HO)
