Dhaka, Bangladesh – January 14, 2026: To further promote exchanges and cooperation between the Chinese and Bangladeshi textile and garment industries and help enterprises seize global market trends, the Guangzhou International Textile, Clothing and Printing Industry Expo (ITCPE) organized a delegation of Chinese textile and garment enterprises to conduct a series of promotional activities in Bangladesh from January 14 to 15, 2026. The delegation made on-site visits to three local leading enterprises in the industry and set up an exclusive booth at the concurrently held Garment Technology Bangladesh Expo(GTB), fully showcasing the highlights of the expo and the technological achievements of China's textile, garment, printing and embroidery industries.

01 In-Depth Visits: Focus on Enterprise Needs, Jointly Explore Industrial Upgrading

During the visits to local factories, the ITCPE delegation held in-depth exchanges with the senior management and technical teams of the three factories on core topics including intelligent production, green printing and dyeing, as well as printing and embroidery.

On-site Visit to the First Factory

It is learned that the factory covers an area of 65,000 square meters and provides one-stop services ranging from weaving, printing and dyeing, printing and embroidery to ready-made garment production. During the discussion with the ITCPE delegation, the factory's person in charge stated: "China's innovative technologies in the digital printing sector, especially the solutions that reduce the cost of single-piece customization to one-third of that of traditional manufacturing, will greatly enhance the market competitiveness of Bangladeshi enterprises. We are very eager to introduce such technologies to further optimize our printing and dyeing processes."

On-site Visit to the Second Factory

This factory is a large-scale knitting mill in Asia, offering one-stop services covering knitting pre-treatment, printing and dyeing, finishing, printing, embroidery and garment manufacturing. During the visit, members of the ITCPE delegation held in-depth discussions with the factory's staff on how to further improve printing precision and efficiency. The factory expressed its hope to learn from China's experience in intelligent printing equipment to upgrade its production capacity, and also looked forward to further cooperation with Chinese enterprises in the textile, garment and printing industry.

On-site Visit to the Third Factory

It is reported that the factory has a daily ready-made garment output of 300,000 pieces, making it a very large-scale textile and garment factory in Bangladesh. Members of the ITCPE delegation had in-depth exchanges with the factory's technical team on the application of green printing and dyeing technology. The factory stated that it is actively seeking more environmentally friendly and sustainable printing and dyeing solutions and hopes to cooperate with Chinese enterprises in this regard.

Meanwhile, all these factories expressed a strong willingness to accept the visit invitation to the 2026 ITCPE, and have planned to learn about and purchase a batch of more advanced textile, garment, printing, embroidery equipment and materials at the 2026 ITCPE to promote the implementation of green technologies.

02 Build an International Platform to Garner Global Spotlight

In addition to visiting local textile, garment, printing and embroidery factories, the Guangzhou International Textile, Clothing and Printing Industry Expo (ITCPE) team also carried out simultaneous promotion at the GTB exhibition. The ITCPE team set up an exclusive booth, received a number of buyers and professional visitors from the textile and garment industry in Bangladesh, India and other countries, conducted one-on-one negotiations with them, and provided detailed introductions to the scale of the 2026 ITCPE, previous exhibition highlights, as well as a variety of cutting-edge equipment, materials and advanced technologies and processes.

During the event, numerous enterprises and professional visitors from Bangladesh, Russia, Japan, South Korea, India and other countries came to the booth to learn more about ITCPE. They look forward to introducing more cost-effective products and technologies through the ITCPE platform and attracting Chinese and global partners. The trip to Bangladesh marks an important milestone in the expo’s internationalization strategy. In 2026, ITCPE will take "Connecting the Globe with Intelligence, Leading the Future through Innovation" as its theme, integrate resources from the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area, and provide a full-chain service for Chinese and Bangladeshi enterprises from technology display to order conversion, helping both sides achieve win-win results in the intelligent, green and high-end development tracks.
