Indicating that more than 160 companies participated in the fair organized in four different halls this year, İsmail Kuş said, "Thanks to the unity and the ability to work in harmony of our companies in the baby and kidswear sector, our fair has reached an important position in a short time.

The business contacts established throughout the fair made a great contribution to the production, competition and exports of the sector. With our innovative and productive perspective, we will continue to take our fair to the highest level together. We aim to organize the second Junioshow Fair of the year between July 10 and 13, 2023 with the participation of companies willing to open up to new markets and increase their existing market shares with the fall-winter concept.

"Development of International Competitiveness Projects Contributed to the Development of the Fair"

Ömer Yıldız, Chairman of the Baby and Kidswear Industrialists and Businessmen Association (BEKSİAD), stated that the Junioshow Fair once again contributed to the rising momentum of the sector. Noting that the companies participating in the fair, which brought the sector together under one roof, were satisfied with the foreign buyers' interest, Yıldız said, "At the same time, we made this organization for the first time with GFA. I can say that our fair was better than expected during the pandemic and during the war between Russia and Ukraine. A great effort was made for the fair. Our Development of International Competitiveness Projects, foreign procurement delegations and B2B meetings that we have carried out in cooperation with the BCCI have played a significant role in the development of this fair. One year after our projects, we held the Junioshow fair. When the most prominent institutions of our city come together, a great potential arises and such successful projects become inevitable. In the following years, we will hopefully witness much more beautiful fairs together. I would like to thank İbrahim Burkay, Chairman of the Board of Directors of BCCI, and all partners contributed to the organization of our fair, which met with sector representatives with a new vision this year."
