Latest edition of IIKF in Tirupur sees subdued mood

India International Knit Fair (IIKF) was held in Tirupur from May 16 to 18, 2018. The spotlight was on spring/summer 2018 with a complete display of latest fashion wear. This time, the fair was comparatively a dull show. The apparel sourcing fair witnessed only 30 companies displaying latest offerings. The event also witnessed a low footfall from the buying community.

In spite of the perfect venue, participation by top exporters displaying their diverse products’ range, tickets and the stay (hospitality) support given to visiting buyers, the visitation on all three days -- be it from overseas buyers or Indian buying houses – was limited.

Tirupur is the knitwear capital of India. Witnessing the worst decline in last three decades, Tirupur’s apparel export industry recorded business worth Rs 23,000 crores during the last financial year, significantly less when compared to Rs 26,000 crores the previous year.

IIKF has emerged as one among of the most reputed knitwear trade fairs in the world. It aims to showcase end-to-end products pertaining to the knitwear segment. India Knit Fair Association has been conducting the India International Knit Fair for 21 years with the objective of presenting the capabilities of knitwear items from India.
