One of the most optimistic news of the beginning of 2018 in the Russian fashion industry, perhaps, can be called the largest delegation of Russian companies at the famous international exhibition ISPO MUNICH 2018 . During the entire existence of ISPO MUNICH, I have never seen such a number of Russian manufacturers representing all segments of the light industry. This year with the support of Ministry of Industry and Trade andRussian Export Center more than 40 companies participate in the exhibition.

It should be noted that Russian Outdoor Village as a project of the Ministry of Industry and Trade, implemented with the support of the Russian Outdoor Group (ROG), has been in existence for four years. The first "Village" was organized at the OUTDoor exhibition in Friedrichshafen, only 11 companies participated in its exposition. The following year, the village moved to the exhibition ISPO.And so, in the third season, the project reached very impressive indicators. If the first Villages If they occupied no more than 120–140 square meters, then this year only in Pavilion A1 the Russian stand exceeds 300 sq. m, plus the continuation of the exposition in Pavilion A6 – another 130 sq.m.

Russian companies have something to show and something to surprise the visitors of this grandiose show.Over the past few years, the country has made a breakthrough in the development of the entire chain of creation of modern equipment, from fabrics, insulation and accessories to ready-made clothing samples.

This year at the Russian Outdoor Village with the support of the Ministry of Industry and Trade, the following companies will be presented at the stand A1-424,425: Basque, Red Fox,Caro-Sport, Dragonfly, Forward, Ozone,Staer, Grand, RAY, Urban Tiger, Hispo, «Alloy», Satila, Marhatter, Nellex, Cool Zone, V-Motion, «Simles», Faradei, «The Whole World», 3R, «Textime», «Truck Accessory», Maksphil, Vento, Efsi, Sporttex, Ice Indigo. In addition, many companies have their own stands where they will present their products on their own.
