Following its fourth edition on 9-11 August, IFCO Istanbul Fashion Connection continues to underline its important position as a global exhibition centre for international fashion. The trade fair saw an increase of over 30% in both exhibitors and visitors, including an increase of over 140% in international visitors.

The exhibition area was also 120% bigger in comparison to last August’s event. Over six segmented halls, more than 400 brands presented their collections of kidswear, womenswear, menswear, sportswear, denim, leather and fur.

 

 

“IFCO has become the most stylish brand in Turkey,” says Mustafa Pasahan, vice president of IHKIB. “It has quickly found its place in the calendar of international buyer groups and as Europe’s largest fashion and apparel fair. It hosts a gathering of brands, designers, export-oriented companies and buyers from all over the world.

“We are well on our way to our goal of establishing Istanbul as an international fashion centre with IFCO. Already on the first day of the fair, we recorded more than 2,500 international buyers from all over the world, including Germany, Israel, Kanda, several Latin American countries, Malaysia, South Africa, the UK, the US, and the UAE.”

Organizers expect more than 600 companies at IFCO’s next edition, which takes place on 7-10 February 2024. For further information, please click here.
