Lin Yungfeng, Vice Chaiman of CCPIT TEX stated that they were happy to see that Home Textiles Sourcing Expo has established itself as a vital sourcing venue for the American home textiles market. With the continued improvement of the U.S. economy and housing market, they are confident that the Home Textiles Sourcing Expo will continue to grow and become the resource of choice for home textiles buyers.
