Source Fashion, Europe’s leading responsible sourcing show, is set to return to Olympia London from January 13–15, 2026 with its most globally diverse edition.
Exhibitors from 20+ countries, including major pavilions from India, Bangladesh, China, Sri Lanka, Africa, South America, Portugal and the UK, will showcase ethical, innovative and circular manufacturing for brands and buyers.

This January, Source Fashion will welcome an impressive line-up of global pavilions, each celebrating the distinctive strengths, skills, and materials of their regions. From established sourcing powerhouses to emerging production hubs, the 2026 edition reinforces the show’s reputation as the world’s most comprehensive and responsible fashion sourcing destination.

Across Asia, sourcing excellence and sustainability continue to advance. This year marks the largest India Pavilion ever seen at Source Fashion, with more Indian exhibitors than any previous edition of the show. India and Bangladesh showcase their strength in large-scale production paired with innovation in sustainable processes, fabrics, and trims. Among India’s standout exhibitors, Coton Code Garments brings a strong reputation for high-quality woven and knitted apparel, supported by responsible production standards and modern manufacturing capabilities. Their presence reflects India’s continued leadership in scalable, ethical fashion manufacturing. China demonstrates precision, speed, and a growing commitment to environmental accountability, while Sri Lanka’s pavilion is recognised for its consistent quality and ethical craftsmanship, with exhibitors specialising in high-tech manufacturing, sustainability-led innovation, and world-leading compliance standards that have earned the country a reputation as a trusted sourcing destination for global brands.

From Africa, a dynamic collective of Kenya, Ethiopia, Egypt, and Tanzania highlights the region’s growing role in global sourcing. These pavilions emphasise ethical production, expanding capacity, and fair-trade practices, underpinned by modern facilities and competitive solutions for brands seeking authentic, sustainable partnerships. Representing the ITC pavilion, Handmade From Tanzania showcases community-driven craftsmanship rooted in traditional techniques and heritage textile skills. Their socially led, women-centred supply chains bring authentic, handmade artistry to the global stage, connecting African creativity with brands seeking meaningful, ethical partnerships.

South America’s rich tradition of textile craft and its growing role in responsible fashion is highlighted through Peru’s innovative, transparent manufacturing capabilities. SH Sourcing brings expertise in premium knitwear and jersey manufacturing, integrating full supply-chain transparency, reduced-impact dyeing, and rigorous fair-work certification into every order. Their commitment to low-impact craftsmanship makes them a key destination for brands seeking elevated, responsibly made essentials.

Portugal continues to set the benchmark for premium European manufacturing, combining exceptional craftsmanship, short lead times, and sustainable innovation that make it a preferred choice for brands seeking quality and proximity. Adding to the European presence, the new British Pavilion makes its debut at the January show, spotlighting design-led, circular, and traceable production for brands looking to source responsibly and locally.

Together, these diverse global showcases make Source Fashion 2026 a truly international platform, where creativity, responsibility, and opportunity intersect, and where buyers can discover the future of fashion sourcing under one roof.

Suzanne Ellingham, Event Director at Source Fashion comments, “Source Fashion has grown into a truly global community, one that reflects the way the fashion industry itself is evolving. Our January 2026 edition brings together makers, manufacturers, and artisans from every corner of the world who share a commitment to creativity, quality, and conscious production. The expansion of our international line-up, from Asia and Africa to Europe and the UK, shows that responsible sourcing is no longer a niche, it’s the new standard. We’re proud to provide a platform where brands can build meaningful, transparent partnerships and discover the future of fashion with integrity.”

Reflecting the show’s growing international appeal, Fibre to Fibre, a pioneering Dutch company specialising in post-consumer circular production, is among the exhibitors joining the January line-up. Known for its innovation in fibre-to-fibre recycling and circular textile systems, the company is helping redefine what’s possible for scalable, sustainable manufacturing in Europe and beyond.

Tom Atkin, UK Business Development Lead at Fibre to Fibre said, “Fibre to Fibre removes the usual barriers to entry for post-consumer circular production. We’ve proven our products and service in the Netherlands, and now we’re offering them to the UK market. Rather than overpaying for poor quality, we offer a service that guarantees quality at a price competitive with organic cotton and recycled polyester. Source Fashion is the perfect place to take this to market with brands attending from all over the world. Source allows us to have global reach in one room, and to focus on making circular manufacturing the norm. We can’t wait.”

Taking place at Olympia London from 13-15 January 2026, Source Fashion offers buyers, designers, and brands a unique opportunity to connect directly with global manufacturers committed to ethical and sustainable practices. As the gateway to responsible sourcing, the show brings together the entire fashion supply chain, from raw materials and fabric innovation to finished garments and accessories, all under one roof. With its expanding international line-up and dedication to conscious creation, Source Fashion continues to shape the future of global fashion sourcing.
