Now in its 10th edition, International Sourcing Expo Australia attracts some of the world’s leading apparel, accessories, textiles and footwear suppliers over three days in November (12-14 November) at the Melbourne Convention and Exhibition Centre.

>
Huge opportunities exist in Australia for organisations from overseas to do business here. As a wealthy nation and one that is known as a really good place to do business, Australia presents an attractive value proposition for manufacturers and suppliers. Starting with three established shows, Global Sourcing Shows Australia provides a trusted platform for international businesses when they are looking to grow their market in Australia and New Zealand.
— Marie Kinsella, CEO International Exhibition and Conference Group

In 2018 the expo attracted more than 720 manufacturers and agents from 19 countries – China, India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Hong Kong, Indonesia, Vietnam, Malaysia, Singapore, United States, Fiji, Australia, Turkey, South Africa, Taiwan, Nepal, Serbia, Italy, and Thailand.

The 2019 edition of the event is expected to attract even wider participation, including The Federation of Indian Export Organisations (FIEO).

>
India is well-regarded in Australia as a quality and reliable supplier of textiles and apparel, and with a membership body of 100,000 exporters from every goods and services sector in the country, FIEO is uniquely positioned to showcase India’s prosperous industry. We are thrilled to be returning to International Sourcing Expo Australia for the seventh time in 2019.
— Dr. Ajay Sahai, FIEO Director General & CEO
