The exhibition organised by Trade Development Authority of Pakistan (TDAP) in collaboration with FICCI after the popular response to its 'Lifestyle Exhibition' here in April 2012.
The four-day exhibition is scheduled to take place at one of the largest trade fair venues here -- Pragati Maidan -- from September 11-14 with over 250 exhibitors of a vast array of Pakistani fashion, textiles, jewellery, accessories, home textiles, furniture, carpets, marbles, granite, agro products and service sectors.
"In the 2012 exhibition, a total of 96 leading brands from Pakistan showcased their top quality exportable products. From the very first day, response of the Indian trade community and consumers was overwhelming, and there were around 100,000 visitors during four days of event," Rabia Javeri Agha told PTI.
Agha says this year a larger number of exhibitors, business delegates and new sectors such as music, couture, and food would be included. The TDAP stall has been designed by a group of students from the Asian Institute of Fashion Design.
