Dear Catherine,

My name is Aline, I work for ABIT - The Brazilian Textile and Apparel Industry Association, which represents the integration of the Brazilian textile chain. In order to help Brazilian companies grow both nationally and internationally, ABIT, with the partnership of APEX-Brasil, Trade and Investment Promotion Agency, created Texbrasil, Brazilian Fashion Industry Export Program, in 2001.

One of our main activities is to promote articulation between international buyers and Brazilian companies, improving our trade relations. International trade agents and/or buyers interested in our products might be invited to come to Brazil, with travelling expenses sponsored by ABIT, so they can get to know more about Brazilian fashion.

I am now responsible for inviting international buyers to a ethical fashion event that is coming up next November in Brasília, Brazil. It will be a great opportunity for the world to see the innovative combinations of design with traditional techniques, great natural beauties with technological tools and preservation of the environment with social work.
.
Please, let me know if you are interested and I will send you more information.

My e-mail address is aline@abit.org.br

Regards.

Aline

Hi Kate, Im not getting a handle on your underlying philosphy from your website but reading between the lines and your reference to the 'common good' I reckon you are intertested in innovative, ethically-produced, eco-friendly products which are fairly traded in a way that truly benefits the disadavantaged. I can supply these. What I need is someone in the USA with marketting experience and a desire to succeed. if you leave me an e-mail address or drop a note to davidmcgill61@yahoo.co.uk, I'll get back to you with details.
