The exhibition encompasses every link in the supply chain, including hosiery products—such as cotton socks, stockings, sports socks, ankle socks, toe socks, children’s socks, functional socks, thermal socks, and business socks—alongside knitting machinery like computerized sock machines, single‑cylinder sock machines, double‑cylinder sock machines, and seamless underwear machines; raw materials including yarns, spandex, nylon, polyester, cotton yarns, elastic bands, and covered yarns; and post‑processing equipment such as setting machines, packaging machines, printing machines, and label‑ironing machines. From fashionable women’s socks to high‑performance athletic socks, and from traditional cotton socks to innovative material‑based designs, exhibitors can seamlessly connect—from sourcing raw materials and selecting equipment to placing finished‑goods orders—within a single venue.
• Precise matchmaking with core buyers and channel partners across East China and nationwide. As China’s e‑commerce capital and a leading hub for the fashion industry, Hangzhou also serves as a major production base and consumer market for the hosiery sector.
