The Organic Exchange, together with Hialpesa and ICCO, cordially invite you to join us in Peru for our 2006 Latin America Regional Supply Chain Meeting, April 24-27th, in culturally rich and cosmopolitan Lima.
Since 2002, the organic cotton market has seen double digit growth, and now stands at approximately $500 million in global sales.
This market is projected to grow to $2 billion by 2010, as more consumers around the world learn about the social and environmental value of organic farming and have more products to choose from in the places where they shop.
Peru and the South American region is poised to be a unique leader because of high quality in every step of the chain from fiber to finished products.
Key brands such as Loomstate, Hanna Andersson, Indigenous Designs, Timberland, and Under the Canopy from the United States, Europe and Japan currently source from this region.
During this unique regional meeting, you will have the opportunity to meet with colleagues from regional and global companies in every part of the supply chain, organic farmers from Paraguay, Peru and Brazil as well as key regional leaders of environmental and social non-profit organizations.
You will also learn about Peru's unique role in organic cotton fiber production and organic cotton apparel and home textile products.
Conference Highlights
You'll increase your regional knowledge of: Farming – fiber, food and certification capacity
