TFTA Agreed to Host International Fastener Show Taiwan 2015 in Kaohsiung
Last year Taiwan Fastener Trading Association (TFTA) held the first edition of International Fastener Show Tainan, Taiwan (known as “IFST”), which gained public recognition and ended with a success. Commenting on the 3rd edition of Taiwan International Fastener Show this year, TFTA new Chairman Bill Chen thinks that the venue and scale was larger than the previous edition, which indicates the significance of Taiwan in the international fastener market. In order to correspond to expectations from the industry, he has announced that the 2nd edition of IFST will be given again in June 2015, as a way to boost the fastener export of Taiwan.
Having no intention of giving the show during the same dates for Fastener Fair Stuttgart 2015 (in March & April) and Fastener Expo Shanghai (in May & June), Chen pointed out IFST will be slated to be given in June, so that global buyers can arrange to attend the show and visit other Asian countries concurrently. On the other hand, considering Tainan and Kaohsiung both being the heartlands of fastener manufacturing in Taiwan, directors of TFTA have made the agreement in a meeting on April 28 to host the show in Kaohsiung. More info about the show will be soon updated on the official website of TFTA (http://www.tfta.org/) or on the website of “IFST” (http://www.taiwan-fastenershowtainan.com/index).
