WHY VIETNAM

Vietnam’s apparel Industry has been becoming more attractive every year and the treaties have made the country even more interesting .  CPTPP is already enforced and EVFTA with Europe is expected soon. In 2018, Vietnam exported approx. USD 36 billion worth textile & apparel products, this is 16% more than what they had exported in the year 2017 and this trend seems to be continuing in 2019.
USA is still one of the biggest markets for Vietnamese Apparel Industry and after on-going US-China trade/tariff war, Vietnam is going to emerge as one of the biggest beneficiaries. The Jeans shipment to the USA in 2018 witnessed an increase of 43% from 2017 and the total denim exports valued at USD 296 million.
According to VITAS, USA holds 53% of the total exports of apparel from Vietnam and Japan holds 20%. Korea and Taiwan are the biggest investors in this country in the Textile and Apparel sector and out of 2100 projects , approx. 1520 projects are for garment factories only.
All these encouraging figures make Vietnam very special for Denim sourcing and therefore the 4^th edition of Denimsandjeans Vietnam is going to be the perfect event to meet all the key players from Vietnamese Denim Industry and other suppliers to Vietnamese Denim Companies.

DENIM TALKS

The show will have some interesting talks on the recent developments, trends and innovations. Denim Experts from USA, Europe and Hong Kong will be joining the show which includes the following:

• Topic: To do good, you actually have to do something; enough talk about sustainability, it is ACTION time.

Speaker: Mr. Stefano Aldighieri (Ex- Design Director Levi, Ex Creative Director Sevens)  

• Topic: Sustainable denim production - a comparison between China and Vietnam

The talk will discuss the opportunities and challenges in the blue jeans world, and the speaker will share his first-hand experience about sustainable denim at Prosperity's two mills in Quanh Ning, Vietnam and Shaoguan, China, from the source and use of raw materials to new recycling techniques and from smart fabric development to the next gen denim apparel business models.

Speaker: Mr. Leo Gu (GM Prosperity Textile)

Speaker: Ms. Joanne Swift (Ex- Creative Director Mamiye Brothers)  

• Topic: Growth Through Sustainable Denim Production

Speaker: Mr. Jordi Juani (Sales Director- Jeanologia)  

The talk will move around two ideas:

• If jeans production in Asia continues its current growth, the impact on the environment will be catastrophic. A view on how sustainable production is allowing the sector to keep growing and the track to follow if we want to keep it up.

• How this challenge is faced in different Asian countries and how are they adapting the industry in this regard.
