Source Fashion has continued its international expansion by confirming the launch of a Vietnamese Pavilion at its July show this year.

The new Vietnamese Pavilion results from a partnership between Source Fashion and the Vietnam Textile and Apparel Association. 

It will bring a selected group of manufacturers from Vietnam to the UK market. This initiative responds to increasing buyer interest in expanding supply chains to include sourcing partners who prioritise transparency, ethical production and competitive pricing. 

Confirmed exhibitors for the pavilion includes Thai Son S. P, Babeeni, An Hung JSC, Sinnika Vietnam JSC, FP Vietnam, Gen Viet Fashion JSC, Phuong Dong Garment JSC, Lewave, Hoang Phat and Bao Minh Textile JSC.  

Like all exhibitors featured at the event, all Vietnamese manufacturers will be “fully audited and vetted” to meet Source Fashion’s requirements for sustainability and compliance.  

Source Fashion event director Suzanne Ellingham commented: “The introduction of a Vietnamese Pavilion is an important moment for Source Fashion, and a clear reflection of how the show continues to evolve. We are seeing new sourcing destinations come to Source Fashion, reflecting their desire to work with UK and European brands and retailers. As buyers actively look to diversify their supply chains, Vietnam is a fashion production powerhouse, and represents a significant opportunity to reach that goal. 

“Increasing the geographic diversity of the show will always be a key priority. Bringing in new regions not only broadens the sourcing landscape for our visitors, but also ensures we are reflecting the changing dynamics of global manufacturing. The addition of Vietnam strengthens our international offering and underlines the expanding global reach of Source Fashion. 

“What makes this particularly relevant for our audience is the ability to access these manufacturers with full confidence. Every exhibitor at Source Fashion is audited and vetted, ensuring buyers can build responsible, resilient supply chains, all under one roof.”
