The 74th India International Garment Fair (IIGF), one of Asia’s leading B2B apparel sourcing exhibitions, is scheduled to take place from 23–25 January 2026 at Hall No. 2, Yashobhoomi, Dwarka, New Delhi. Organised by the Apparel Export Promotion Council (AEPC) in association with other industry bodies, the event will bring together top Indian garment exporters and international buyers for a three-day business platform focused on the Autumn/Winter 2026–27 season.
The IIGF has long been recognised as a premier sourcing destination that bridges Indian manufacturers with global apparel buyers, offering an extensive showcase of men’s, women’s and children’s wear, knitwear, sustainable garments, and fashion accessories. Exhibitors from across the country are expected to present their latest designs and collections, while buyers will gain insights into emerging fashion trends and expanding opportunities within India’s dynamic apparel industry.
With a reputation for facilitating meaningful business connections, the IIGF plays a crucial role in promoting India’s garment exports on the international stage. Delegates attending the event will have the opportunity to engage with more than 400 leading exporters, explore diverse product categories, and negotiate sourcing deals, bolstering global trade partnerships.
The event takes place during a strategic time for the apparel sector, as brands and retailers worldwide prepare their procurement plans for upcoming seasons. The fair’s focus on quality production, competitive pricing, and innovative design reflects India’s competitiveness in the global garment trade.
In addition to product displays and buyer-seller meetings, IIGF also offers a platform for industry networking, knowledge exchange and collaboration. Many international buyers look to the fair as a key fixture in their sourcing calendar, given its long history and significant contribution to expanding trade flows between India and global markets.
The AEPC, which organises the IIGF under its mandate to support apparel exporters, continues to strengthen India’s presence in international fashion sourcing events. Through initiatives such as IIGF, the council aims to enhance export competitiveness, stimulate business growth and showcase the depth of India’s textile and apparel manufacturing capabilities to a global audience.
The 74th edition of the India International Garment Fair is poised to be a vibrant business environment for both exhibitors and buyers, underlining New Delhi’s status as a key hub for trade exhibitions in the apparel sector.
