Hey there has anyone been to this clothing trade fare before, is it worth a visit? Is it a good place to conduct business or just head to the clothing markets of pratunm or chatachuk?

thanx

this is an international trade fare for clothing. it's very much business orientated. you are talking about major clothing manufacturers and suppliers. you'll need accreditation, passes etc to get in plus a few million dollars if you want a contract.

definitely not for a couple of shirts or a pair of shoes.

you may well be right, but i'd stick with Pratunum. MBK, night market etc. there easy to reach. bitec on a good traffic day is about 40 mins drive to the SE of bangkok.
