outlook:
It is with a positive frame of mind that the exhibitors
saw their customers, won back others and discovered
new ones. Here are some of the eyewitness accounts:
•The Jean Ruiz
company, has specialised in the close stitch –
high-end range for 30 years. Its strengths: flexibility,
responsiveness, adaptation.
"This is
the first time we've participated in this
show. We've had an excellent show with an
average of 45 contacts, and we especially
met with customers in the women's and children's
sector. For us, this is very positive."

•For Mr. Rousseau, manager of the Confection
Rousseau company, a loyal exhibitor for 3
sessions now:
"We have
rubbed shoulders with 40 high-quality contacts,
of which some are new customers. We are
very happy with this edition."

•M. Baudry
from the Haspolo company, who came under the auspices
of Ouest Mode Industrie, specialising in fur, outerwear,
inspection and repairs:
"This was
an excellent edition; customers have needs
and are looking for contractors. We are
interested in them and they are interested
in us."

•The Bontemps
company, specialised in digital printing
on decorative textiles and customised communication.
It has an incorporated dry-filling workshop for
home furnishings, clothing, lingerie, accessories
