Fifteen countries and regions will have group pavilions at APLF - Materials, Manufacturing and Technology (MMT) 2007, when it takes place in Hong Kong on March 28–30, highlighting the show’s international appeal. Over 1,800 exhibitors from all over the world will exhibit at the event, with significant increases in participation from Hong Kong, Mexican, Ethiopian and Pakistani manufacturers.

MMT runs concurrently, and in the same venue, as Fashion Access Spring 2007 which will showcase handbags, footwear, travelware, fur and leather garments and fashion accessories; and the Prime Source Forum, an event which is said to be quickly establishing itself as an important meeting place for the global apparel industry.
