Gyeongbuk Technopark participated in the 2024 Apparel Sourcing Show, the largest textile exhibition in Latin America, from the 21st to the 23rd together with textile companies from Gyeongbuk Province.

This exhibition, held in Guatemala, was part of the “North Gyeongsang Province Machinery and Promotion Project” by Gyeongbuk TP and the Economic and Industrial Bureau’s Diplomatic and Trade Division of North Gyeongsang Province, providing support for local companies.

The participating companies included Ewha SRC, Ilseong Machinery Co., Ltd., Daeil Tech, Nitex Jechim, and Haein Machinery, all domestic textile industry firms.

The B2B meetings between the participating companies and local businesses were coordinated and supported by the KOTRA Guatemala Trade Center, and Samsung Electronics provided Galaxy S24 Ultra devices with real-time interpretation capabilities for the participating companies.

Since 2019, Gyeongbuk TP has been building a local network in the Guatemalan textile sector by carrying out the “Guatemala Textile Field Technical Guidance (TASK) Project” and the “Guatemala Textile TASK Center Support Project” under the Ministry of Trade, Industry and Energy.

Through the previously established network, meetings between textile machinery companies from North Gyeongsang Province and local Guatemalan companies and institutions were arranged.

Hainseong, President of Gyeongbuk Technopark, said, “Through our participation in this exhibition in Guatemala, we hope that the excellent companies of North Gyeongsang Province will not only expand overseas but also create positive ripple effects by further expanding into the North and Central American markets.”
