The Government of Canada is organizing a Canadian Sustainable Apparel and Textile Trade Mission to China, scheduled for September 7–10, 2026. The mission will connect Canadian fashion brands and circular economy enablers with Chinese sustainable fashion stakeholders, including e-commerce platforms, brand management companies, showroom buyers, and investors.
The agenda is currently being developed. Confirmed programming includes a market briefing at the Canadian Embassy in Beijing, company site visits, and a Canadian showcase at China Fashion Week on September 10. Based on the draft agenda, Chinese companies expected to engage with the delegation include JD Worldwide, premium cashmere brand Erdos, fabric innovator Lancy, and major fashion and sportswear brands Ellassay, and Li-Ning - providing exposure across e-commerce, retail, and sustainable manufacturing.
CAF members with an interest in participating — whether as an emerging fashion brand or a circular business model enabler — are encouraged to reach out directly to the organizers to express their interest:
