Sewing up China’s huge apparel market

Global textile machinery makers plan to increase investment in China as the country is set to become the world’s largest apparel market.

France-based Lectra, which provides software and cutting systems for the garment industry, expects to see sales in China post a record high this year, Andreas Kim, China chief of the company, said yesterday in an interview during the China International Sewing Machinery and Accessories Show.

He said the Asia-Pacific region accounts for about 20 percent of Lectra’s sales. He added that China holds great potential as the country is set to become the world’s largest apparel market by 2025.

US-based Gerber Technology, a provider of hardware and software which help automate and manage product design and manufacturing process, also plans to boost investments in China amid rising demand, officials said at the fair.
