While Première Vision cancelled the physical edition of its main event for September, the offshoot 'Made in France' took place as a live event from September 01-02, 2020 The 18th edition of the fair presented local textile chain and savoir-faire, fulfilled the requirements set by the French government thanks to restricted exhibitor and visitor numbers.

Located at the Carreau du Temple, a former market hall that had been converted into an event location in the middle of the Marais district, 'Made in France' gathered around 100 exhibitors and–according to the organizers–attracted 3,500 visitors, 3 per cent more than last year. Particularly well attended were the fair's series of lectures, highlighting topics such as the relocation of production, new opportunities for cooperation, taking into account solidarity-based eco-systems and the importance of territories for the transfer of know-how.

A new offer of the fair called 'Hackathon' aimed to accompany and support local brands, which already produce or want to produce completely or mostly in France, by an industrial eco-system consisting of manufacturers, experts and organizations.
