Online matchmaking for the fashion industry. Collabora�on with EEN and FashionUnited Fatma Sener, Author In the fashion industry it is becoming more and more important to start an online business. The online fashion market increased by 14% in the first quarter of 2018. The growth of the mobile channel is remarkable, with a turnover of 6.65 million euro, according to an ar�cle on the interna�on- al b2b fashion pla�orm 'FashionUnited'. This is one of the reasons why every fashion entrepreneur needs to be aware of the online environment within their own company. For more informa�on, please check this Dutch ar�cle on FashionUnited.

They offer a one-stop-shop pla�orm with news and trends, a career center, an events calendar and business intel- ligence.

In past Latvia used to be one of the world’s biggest manu- facturers of flax. These tex�le tradi�ons have developed over �me, and today we see well-equipped sector with the latest technology and know-how. Latvia has in fact become a place where many well-known European, Russian and global brands place their produc�on for smaller orders that need fast turnaround, or that give preference to environmentally sound produc�on. In 2017 the tex�le industry contributed 3.4 % to the total manufacturing output of Latvia, reaching a turnover of EUR 248 mil- lion. Tradi�onally, it is also a highly export-oriented sector, with 70-80 % of output reaching foreign customers. Latvia is also major lingerie-manufacturing centre in Eastern Europe, with more than 50 producers located in the coastal city of Liepaja alone. Only France possesses a higher concentra�on of lingerie companies. In the light of this Bal�c Fashion and Tex�le Riga exhibi�on is a wonderful pla�orm for new business contacts, partnerships and collabora�ons. Latvian Technology Centre (LTC) has been par�cipa�ng on Bal�c Fashion and Tex�le Riga exhibi�ons since 2009. The exhibi�on is annually held in Riga at the beginning of April.
