The global textile and apparel industry will converge in the heart of Asia as the 2nd Asia Sourcing Show 2026 (Textiles & Apparel) and the Global Sourcing Summit 2026 take centre stage from 3–5 June 2026 at the IMPACT Exhibition & Convention Center in Bangkok. The dual events position Thailand as a powerful gateway for global sourcing, industry dialogue and cross-border collaboration.
Organised as a comprehensive multi-country sourcing platform, Asia Sourcing 2026 integrates the 2nd Asian International Apparel Sourcing Show and the 2nd Asian International Yarn & Fabric Sourcing Show. This unification brings together leading manufacturers across the full textile and apparel value chain – from yarns and fabrics to finished apparel and accessories – under one roof.
Strategic Partnerships & Support The event is backed by prominent strategic partners, including the International Apparel Federation (IAF) and the Asean Federation of Textile Industries (Aftex). It also receives strong support from key organisations such as the National Federation of Thai Textile Industries (NFTTI), the Thailand Textile Institute (THTI) and the Thailand Convention and Exhibition Bureau (TCEB).
These flagship platforms are developed as the first truly global, multi-country textile and apparel sourcing marketplace ever organised in Thailand. The strategic objective is clear: to elevate Asian and Thai manufacturers, promote local brands and showcase the country’s industrial capabilities on the world stage. With strong backing from global industry bodies, the initiatives aim to strengthen regional collaboration, highlight Asean manufacturing excellence and connect Asian supply chains with global buyers and policymakers.
The 2nd Asia Sourcing Show 2026 is part of CEMS-Global USA’s Textile Series of Exhibitions, held across three continents in Bangladesh, Brazil, Morocco, Sri Lanka and Thailand.
A Strategic Marketplace for a Rapidly Changing Industry The global textile and apparel industry is undergoing a profound structural transformation driven by supply-chain diversification, rising tariffs, shifting trade alliances, evolving trade corridors, nearshoring and the acceleration of regional trade blocs. Within this landscape, Asia has firmly emerged as the epicentre of global manufacturing and sourcing.
The 2nd Asia Sourcing 2026 event is designed to address this transformation by creating a unified marketplace that connects Asian manufacturers with regional and international buyers seeking resilience, flexibility and multi-country sourcing solutions. The event will showcase the capabilities of producers from across Asia’s textile and apparel manufacturing nations, enabling buyers to explore new partnerships, expand sourcing networks and discover innovative products and technologies in one strategic destination.
Positioned as a high-impact, pan-Asian B2B platform, the show connects Asia’s leading manufacturing nations with international buyers from South and Southeast Asia, Europe, North America, the Far East and Australasia. Hosted in Bangkok – the geographic and commercial crossroads of the region – the platform aims to establish Thailand as a preferred global hub for textile and apparel sourcing.
Global Sourcing Summit 2026: Shaping the Future Running concurrently with the exhibition, the inaugural Global Sourcing Summit 2026 will gather global federations, associations, policymakers, brands, sourcing executives and industry thought leaders for high-level dialogue on the future of global manufacturing, trade collaboration and sustainable growth.
The summit will provide a platform for strategic discussions on emerging sourcing corridors, technological transformation and international cooperation, reinforcing Thailand’s role as a central meeting point for the global textile ecosystem.
