Feedback

The exhibitors and visitors say that they got most out of the show, generated sales leads, held fruitful talks and signed mutually beneficial deals.

Viktor Evtukhov, State Secretary - Deputy Minister of Industry and Trade of the Russian Federation

"The week brought together international trade shows which offer an exclusive opportunity to see the latest Russian and foreign developments and equipment for textile manufacturing and digitalization of the industry.

The joint efforts of the government and business allow not only solidifying our positions in the domestic market but also enter foreign markets and compete with leading international brands."

Aleksey Khokhlov, Deputy of the Russian State Duma

"Here one can visit several related trade shows. Russian Textile Week has a bright future. We have to develop it. Inlegmash represents interests of both manufacturers and users of textile equipment. Among other things, it is important because Internet will never substitute face-to-face networking and an opportunity to touch and experience equipment and other products."
