In response to changing market conditions the Chicago Men’s Apparel Group (CMAG) is pleased to announce the launch of their new show the Matrix Apparel Market (Axis of Fashion).  

The next show will be held October 19th - 21st 2010 at the Renaissance Schaumburg Hotel and Convention Center, located in Schaumburg Illinois.  This new spectacular 100,000 square foot facility is centrally located within driving distance of 48 million people.  It is only fifteen minutes from Chicago’s O’Hare International airport making it the perfect venue to host this new Midwest market.  During these three days the show will attract over 1,500 of the region’s top retailers providing a major venue allowing you access to this very important market.  

Due to current economic conditions traveling to national shows has become too expensive as well as counter productive for retailers, sales reps, and manufactures alike.  As a means of preservation it is now essential we recognize the importance of catering to our retailer’s needs.  The Matrix Apparel Market will entwine all pertinent fashion classifications, Suburban, Premium, Urban, Skate, Men’s, Ladies, Children’s, Footwear, Accessories, and all other classifications that fit.  United under one roof and presenting this offering of fashions will attract a large diverse group of retailers.  Once there they will be able to find the merchandise necessary for them to create a unique image within their own stores that satisfies the whims of today’s fashion consumer.  They will be able to focus their efforts on purchasing merchandise rather than waste valuable time traveling from one venue to another.   The Matrix Apparel Market will become the catalyst for new generations of retailers that helps rejuvenate a challenged market.  When a show is successful we as reps and manufacturers are its beneficiaries as well.

We urge you all to become involved in the Matrix to make this show the success that the market needs today.  You can’t afford to miss the possibilities of entwining yourself into this vast market.
