A three-day 2025 Myanmar International Textile and Ma­chinery Fair is scheduled to take place on 5 to 7 December 2025 at the Yangon Convention Centre (YCC), Inya Lake Hotel, attracting about 100 garment exhibitors from China and My­anmar, according to the Myan­mar Garment Manufacturers Association (MGMA).

Under the support of the Zhejiang Provincial Depart­ment of Commerce, MGMA and the Chinese Textile & Gar­ment Association in Myanmar (CTGA) jointly hosted this fair.

The 2025 Myanmar Inter­national Textile and Machinery Fair will feature clothing, fab­rics, and textile machinery from textile manufacturers in Chi­na. The event will help promote Made-in-Myanmar products of small and medium manufactur­ing enterprises of Myanmar.

Furthermore, panel dis­cussions on garment sectoral development will be held with experts from the ASEAN Fed­eration of Textiles (AFTEX). Performances, China-ASEAN traditional costume shows, competitions, the CMP, and a local brand’s fashion show will also be featured. Additional­ly, there will be an Exhibitors’ Business Matching and Gar­ment-Related Industries event.

“Advanced machinery, lat­est advances in garment man­ufacturing, connection with trade partner countries and improvement of manufacturing productivity play a key role in gaining a competitive edge with Made-in-Myanmar products in the international market. MGMA has been endeavour­ing to explore new markets for Myanmar’s products. Partici­pating in trade fairs and Busi­ness to Business matchings also helps boost Myanmar’s garment production capacity among global buyers. The ob­jectives of the trade fair are to raise awareness of the lat­est technology for Myanmar’s garment manufacturers and create opportunities to build business relations with inter­national companies by actively participating in this. I hope this fair will assist Myanmar’s gar­ment sector in taking further steps,” MGMA Chair U Myint Soe said. — ASH/KK
