BAKU, Azerbaijan, October 24. Turkmenistan has
approved a proposal for domestic textile companies to participate
in the Fast Textile 2026 international exhibition in Zgierz,
Poland, in November to expand the industry’s export potential.


According to the press service of the Turkmen government, the
proposal was presented by Deputy Chairman of the Cabinet of
Ministers Nokerguly Ataguliyev at an online government meeting
chaired by President Serdar Berdimuhamedov.


Turkmenistan plans to showcase export-oriented products
manufactured by enterprises under the Ministry of Textile Industry
and companies affiliated with the Union of Industrialists and
Entrepreneurs.


The exhibition will also provide an opportunity for bilateral
talks aimed at establishing business partnerships and expanding
cooperation with international counterparts.







President Berdimuhamedov noted that Turkmenistan’s textile
industry produces high-quality goods that are widely exported to
foreign markets. He approved the proposal and instructed the deputy
prime minister to take the necessary steps to organize the
companies’ participation.


Fast Textile 2026 is an international B2B textile
trade fair scheduled for 17–19 November 2026 at Ptak Expo (Ptak
Wholesale Center) in Rzgów, near Łódź, Poland. Organized by Ptak
S.A., the 12th autumn edition focuses on fabrics, knitwear, yarns,
machinery, accessories, printing, embroidery and related
technologies. It is expected to feature more than 600 exhibitors,
over 14,500 trade visitors and approximately 20,000 m² of
exhibition space, making it one of the largest textile sourcing
events in Central and Eastern Europe.


Turkmenistan’s textile sector, managed by the
Ministry of Textile Industry and private enterprises under the
Union of Industrialists and Entrepreneurs, operates modern
facilities that process domestic cotton into yarn, fabrics and
finished goods. Up to 70% of production is exported, primarily
cotton yarn (key counts such as Nm 27/1 and 34/1) to markets
including Türkiye, the UAE, Kyrgyzstan, Azerbaijan and others in
Europe and Asia. Participation in Fast Textile supports efforts to
expand these export channels and form new partnerships.
