DUSHANBE, 01.02.2017. /NIAT “Khovar”/. For the sixth time, Tajikistan exhibits its cotton yarn to wide range of international buyers at the International Istanbul Yarn Fair, the second biggest yarn fair in the world, to be held on 2-5 February, 2017 in the Turkish city.

According to the International Trading Center (ITC), Six Tajik spinning companies “Fayzi Istiqlol — 2011”, “HIMA-Textile”, “Nohid”, “Olim Textile”, “RBT Resandai Tojikiston”, and “Vahdat Textile” continue a good tradition of the Tajikistan participation at this leading specialized exhibition. “Nohid” visits the fair to find new potential source of raw materials, while the rest five Tajik companies exhibit their products to potential buyers. As in previous years, the organization and participation of the Tajik delegation at this fair are made possible by the ITC project funded by the Government of Switzerland within its Trade Cooperation Program (TCP) in Tajikistan.

The International Istanbul Yarn Fair acts as a meeting point for about 8,000 visitors from around 80 countries. Named as “the heart of yarn industry in Eurasia”, the exhibition displays different types of yarn, fiber, textile machinery, and much more.

Mr. Saidmumin Kamolov, ITC National Project Manager, believes that “The International Istanbul Yarn Fair is an ideal event for our companies to meet leading textile producers from the region, empower own brands in the regional market, establish new contacts with the manufacturers, suppliers, importers, traders, get acquainted with trends, demands and expectations of the market, as well as to explore new products and innovations”.

Mr. Bahrom Mamadjanov, Director of “RBT Resandai Tojikiston”: “Last year, when we participated at the Istanbul Yarn Fair for the first time, we returned with five signed contracts, which was a fantastic result for our young company. The Istanbul fair gives us a good opportunity to establish direct business linkages and partnerships with potential clients and to diversify our orders”.

In order to improve capacities of the Tajik textile and clothing enterprises in product development and marketing, ITC helps companies to prepare for and participate at international trade fairs.
