Textile Exchange Conference

The Textile Exchange Conference is a major global gathering of stakeholders from across the textile and fashion supply chain, focused on driving meaningful sustainability outcomes. It attracts a wide range of participants, including major brands, retailers, manufacturers, sustainability leaders, and innovators working in areas such as circularity, traceability, regenerative agriculture, and new materials.

2026 will mark just the second time that the Textile Exchange Conference is held in Canada. The Trade Commissioner Service (TCS) will leverage this opportunity to showcase Canadian sustainability innovation to an international audience through a Canada pavilion and targeted business-to-business (B2B) program.

The TCS will also create a Canadian Textiles Capabilities Directory to facilitate B2B matchmaking and increase visibility for Canadian solutions among international participants. Submit your profile by August 10 to be considered for inclusion in the Directory
