The third edition of ATS-Miami promises to be as big and lively as ever, featuring 150+ booths of apparel and textile factories offering source-direct pricing and quantities, plus more than a dozen expert-led seminars and panels straight from the show floor.
Registration is free of charge and includes entrance to the exhibit booths and conference sessions, to be held at the Mana Wynwood Convention Center.
With a focus on connecting buyers to manufacturers from around the world, ATS-Miami serves as a gateway to Latin America and beyond.
Along with the hundreds of factory booths filled with readymade apparel and textiles, the three-day event will feature matchmaking, networking, and education.
The featured series of seminars, panels, and runway shows, live from the show floor, will be led by industry experts, designers, and government officials. Topics will centre around supply chain optimisation, fashion & design, technology and AI, sustainability, near-sourcing, the Latin American market and the US market.
“We are committed to providing attendees with free access to the latest sources and resources in the apparel and textile industry,” said Jason Prescott, CEO of JP Communications, the organiser of ATSM. “Our sources are the factories and products. Our resources are a curated set of panels and keynotes. We are proud to always offer it all at no charge to our attendees.”

WRAP is pleased to be partnering with ATS once again and looking forward to participating in the show.”
