The acquisition will increase Tavex’s manufacturing capacity in Mexico to 30 million meters,
including workwear and denim fabrics. The purchase is in line with Tavex’s goal of consolidating
global denim fabric production and definitively positioning the company in the US market.
“Our objective with this investment is to increase denim production in the differentiated
product segments [Authentic and Premium lines] in North America,” said Herbert Schmid, CEO, Tavex
Group.
“As part of this strategy, in July, Tavex will open a service center in New York to meet the
demand of current and future clients.”
