AEF Business Center 2026 in Paris: where to stay

AEF Business Center returns to Paris Expo Porte de Versailles as the yearly meeting point for the textile, haberdashery and craft supply trade. Across five business days, French and international suppliers showcase fabrics, yarns, beads, DIY materials and creative stationery for a strictly professional audience. The show works as an ordering and launch platform: wholesalers, multi-brand distributors, manufacturers, publishers and design studios come to finalise seasonal ranges and spot trends in fashion, home textiles and creative hobbies. Comexposium organises the event within its autumn Paris schedule. Its overlap with fairs such as Aiguille en Fête gives buyers the chance to combine several days of sourcing and networking in the French capital.
