What is TEXTILE NETWORK JAPAN

Private Joint Exhibition by Textile Craftsmen throughout Japan

The establishment of T･N J began following the WFTF (World Fashion Trade Fare OSAKA) where two booths which gathered unique fabric from weaving shops (such as cloth and dress material) were set up. These booths were [Textile Road] (1997 WFTF) and [Planning Corner] (1996 WFTF).

These booths were set up by renting space (a corner) of the WFTF. Exhibitors and visitors left positive feedback about the practicality of the two booths and expressed a desire to see these booths set up regularly.

Following this a booth called “T･N Exhibit” was organized twice at the business negotiation exhibition across producing areas and exchange meeting of manufacturers in 1998. After that, the name was changed to “T･N JAPAN” in 2009 in order to promote international recognition and spread information about the company.

At the time, IT wasn’t publicly subsidized and didn’t receive aid grants.

They also focus on making contact with apparel designers and apparel buyers (such as planning companies) with which to do house sales directly, face-to- face.

T･N J has begun to expand our business clientele to apparel brands from abroad who also desire reliability and quality.

T･N J has been evaluated by exhibitions as being `without competition`.

Fabric manufacturers in the community aiming to be the Top of the `Niche

T･N J participates in the exchange and co-development of materials and material processing technology, as well as the exchange of information pertaining to manufacturing and distribution logistics. The end result is both the evolution of fashionable quality and that of business service and global positioning.

T･N J is the first the business negotiation exhibition in Japan based on these concepts, developed even earlier than JC.
