At this trade show in Long Beach, attendees have the opportunity to meet, talk to, and see product demos from hundreds of companies in the decorated apparel industry. Many companies, including those selling machines, like screen printing, embroidery, direct-to-garment printing, vinyl transfer, and the necessary chemical products, as well as blank apparel companies, are participating and showcasing the latest styles.
This year's most significant achievement was conversing in Japanese with a company based in Kyoto that sells the water-based ink I've always wanted to use. Additionally, we discovered two manufacturing print companies that will be beneficial for Art Mina Inc's new stage.
I observed a shift in the companies I was seeking compared to a few years ago. Does this signify Art Mina's evolution? Next time I would like to challenge myself to participate in a workshop.
