TDAP getting ready to partake in Heimtextil 2016

Heimtextil is an international trade fair for home and contract textiles where more than 2,700 exhibitors and roughly 67,000 trade visitors participate. The trade fair serves as a business and information platform for manufacturers, retailers and designers from around the world. The Trade Development Authority of Pakistan (TDAP) will be participating again in this fair to be held in 2016.

TDAP is the successor organization to the Export Promotion Bureau (EPB) and is mandated to have a holistic view of global trade development rather than only the ‘export promotion’ perspective of its predecessor.

Designated as the premier trade organization of the country, TDAP shall be a dedicated, effective, and an empowered organization, which shall be professionally managed. Trade Development Authority of Pakistan (TDAP), previously known as the Export Promotion Bureau (EPB)[1] is the apex agency of the Government of Pakistan engaged in promotion and growth of country’s exports.

Over 2,750 exhibitors from over 68 countries and around 68,000 buyers and trade visitors from more than 130 countries participated in the event in 2015, the biggest and most important exhibition for towels, bed linen and kitchen textile products.

Around 220 exhibitors from Pakistan showcased their products at the fair. A total 48 exhibitors under the pavilion of TDAP and 172 participated directly.

The fair is scheduled to be held at Frankfurt-Germany, from January 12 to 15, 2016.
