Intertextile Shanghai Apparel Fabrics brings fabric makers and buyers from across Asia and beyond to one hall complex every autumn. From 27 to 29 August 2024, Azgard9 exhibited in the fair's Beyond Denim zone, in Hall 8.1 of the National Exhibition and Convention Center in Shanghai.
In its guide to featured denim exhibitors, organiser Messe Frankfurt described Azgard Nine as "a vertically integrated denim solutions provider in Pakistan" with control over the entire denim production process. It highlighted ring and open-end spinning, using environmentally friendly processes and materials "to create clean, green and sustainable denim fabrics".
That control is what Azgard9 brings to the table. Spinning, weaving, dyeing, finishing and garment making happen within one company, so brands get one partner from yarn to finished jeans. Intertextile Shanghai has long been on the company's circuit: CEO Ahmed Humayun Shaikh listed it among Azgard9's regular trade shows as early as 2017.
The business behind the stand was growing. In the year to 30 June 2024, net sales reached Rs36.5 billion, with export sales of Rs34.5 billion.
