Meet NYFIC at CitySource

Explore resources for making fashion products locally at CitySource’s Manufacturing Expo: Local Supplier Showcase at FIT on October 20. Produced by FIT’s Center for Continuing and Professional Studies with support from the Garment District Alliance, the event connects designers and businesses with New York City manufacturers and suppliers.

Stop by the NYFIC table to learn about our fifth and final scheduled round of Sustainable Textile Innovation Grants, opening October 30, and our upcoming New York Supplier Directory, being developed to connect businesses across the state’s textile and fashion supply chain. Meet our team, ask questions, and join our email list for updates.

Visit participating vendors to discuss your production needs, from pattern and sample making to manufacturing, textile services, fabrics, and trims. FIT is a member of the NYFIC consortium.
