THE APPAREL SOURCING CLUB-DAY 2024:
A SOLID OFFER AND DEMAND
14 OCTOBER 2024 │ STEIGENBERGER HOSTEL FRANKFURTER HOF │FRANKFURT, GERMANY │ 09h00 – 18h00
The second edition of the APPAREL SOURCING CLUB-DAY successfully took place on 14 October 2024 in Frankfurt, Germany. In total, 32 Manufacturers from 12 countries presented their products to more than 20 Sourcers. In the face of stagnating consumption, the DAY managed to yet again offer a functional concept based on manufacturing close to Europe, professionally matching offer and demand.

Some quotes from our MANUFACTURERS
“ … not even 8 days after the DAY, we are in full contact with X, X, X and X, a very good result, thank you for the organisation of the DAY this year, next Apparel Sourcing Club-DAY, count on us! … ”
“ … despite the tense market situation, we managed to meet top-potential buyers, something quite unusual these days … we have stopped our participation in most trade fairs, but will certainly return to the DAY in 2025! … ”
“ … Frankly speaking, the event exceeded our expectations, as we know that the market is difficult … but we did make interesting contacts, and went back home with several serious requests for quotation, not more to ask for! … ”
“ … This was our first participation and we really appreciated the professionalism on display. The Organiser seems to know what they are doing, they know the subject of apparel production and sourcing, quite different to a trade fair, where you are left alone … For us, this way a good DAY, look forward to coming back!… “
“ … Next to presenting our products, we appreciate the opportunity to exchange with the visitors in an open and relaxed atmosphere … we also like to exchange with other Manufacturers, sharing our experience, this is what a CLUB is all about! … “

Some quotes from our SOURCERS
“ … Thank you APPAREL SOURCING CLUB team for hosting the second day, we were impressed with the offer and the quality of Manfuacturers in Frankfurt, keep going! …”
” … For us, the DAY is not only a great opportunity to meet new potential suppliers, but also to interact with colleagues on the subject of apparel production in 2024 … the only thing we need to criticize is the shortage of catering in comparison with 2023 … This was the second DAY for us and we look forward to a third edition in 2025! … “
“ … When we were asked if the DAY should be hosted in 2024, we said yes, despite the tense market situation …. and we were happy to see that there is a demand and an offer, surely subdued, but tangible and very vibrant at the DAY! …”
“ … If the DAY would grow in numbers of Manufacturers, this could become the key apparel sourcing event in Europe … not only to meet professionally, pre-selected manufacturers, but to speak to your colleagues, a true value added, thank you team! …”
This was our first visit and we were surprised to engage with Manufacturers in such a lively and professionally organised setting … the consultants know what they are doing, we believe that we met at least three potential suppliers, not to mention all the valuable exchange with colleagues … well done! …”
We are continuing to improve the performance, not only of the DAY, but of the CLUB as a whole and we rely on the support of our Manufacturers and Sourcers to maximise results of the matching process. A first round of feedback received from our Sourcers encourage us to continue with the DAY in 2025 while indicating times and target manufacturing regions. At the same time, we will reinforce the online matching components throughout the year, while the CLUB will offer a more profound messaging service, informing members about subjects such as markets and innovation.
Time and place for the DAY 2025 will be published shortly!
AT YOUR SERVICE!
