EXINTEX, is the most important international textile exhibition in Latin America, positioning the Mexican textile industry, as a national and international reference. In its twenty-second edition , EXINTEX 2021 will take place from October 26 to 29 at the Centro Expositor of the city of Puebla.

Puebla was the scene of what was possibly the cradle of the first manufacturing textile facility in the American continent, and has developed a very important textile and garment industry, as well as to host a prestigious event as EXINTEX.

Puebla de Zaragoza is located in eastern central Mexico, east of Mexico City, being known for various aspects. It was the historical scene of the Battle of Puebla, where on May 5, 1862, the Mexican General, Ignacio Zaragoza defeated French troops, under the command of Charles Ferdinand Latrille , Count of Lorencéz , considered at the time , the best army commander of the world, when the France had a first attempt to dominate the Country.

In addition to its glorious history, Puebla has its tourist attractions, which include its historic center and its outstanding gastronomy, which has led it to be recognized by UNESCO as a Mankind Cultural Heritage. All this, together with having a pleasant climate and an important industrial infrastructure, makes Puebla an ideal place for holding business meetings in an entirely attractive environment.

For many exhibitors, a large number of visitors is one of the most important criteria for following up EXINTEX, among them,  internationally renowned retailers.  On the other hand, many of the exhibitors come from different countries around the world.

Due to Worldwide limitations caused the pandemic of the COVID-19, affecting Mexico as well, it will possible to have EXINTEX 2021 for four days, from October 26 to October 29, at the Centro Expositor de Puebla, Zona de los Fuertes, Mexico.
