Brazil is promoting its apparel and textile industry in Mexico through a series of roadshows. Executives from Brazilian companies like Dohler, Scanone, Ober, Suominen and Fibertex are meeting companies in the cities of León, Aguascalientes, Guadalajara, Puebla, Monterrei and Mexico City.

The trade mission is aimed at companies in the technical fabrics and nonwoven fabrics segments. Mexico happens to be a market with lots of potential since there are very developed technical fabric and nonwoven fabric industries, such as footwear, civil construction, automobiles and more. The roadshow is being held from April 1 to 4, 2019 and being organized by Texbrasil (Brazilian Textile and Fashion Industry Internationalization Program), a partnership between the Brazilian Trade and Investment Promotion Agency and the Brazilian Textile and Apparel Industry Association.

Brazil’s apparel market is expanding at a substantial CAGR. Brazil is one of the largest exporters of apparel and fashionable goods. Arab countries are some of the largest importers of apparels and textiles from Brazil. The United Arab Emirates accounts for the highest imports from Brazil, followed by Egypt, Algeria, and Morocco. Advanced techniques used in manufacturing helps manufacturers meet the demand from various countries. With the recovering economy, the apparel industry is expected to rebound over the coming years.
