Synergy with the «World of Childhood» exhibition
Parallel to CJF, the «World of Childhood» exhibition, dedicated to children's products, is held at Crocus Expo. The joint holding of the two projects forms a unified business environment featuring different segments of the industry — from clothing to toys and related products.
For visitors, this means the opportunity to address several tasks in a single visit: study the children's fashion market, evaluate offers in other categories, and build a more comprehensive purchasing strategy.
Business program
The CJF business program is not a formal series of presentations, but a practical part of the exhibition designed to help participants navigate market changes and make informed business development decisions.
The program includes thematic forums, seminars, and masterclasses dedicated to the key issues of the children’s fashion industry — from assortment management and sales channels to market transformation driven by technology and changing consumer behavior.
Topics traditionally featured in the agenda include:
- development of sales strategies in competition with marketplaces and the changing role of offline retail;
- promotion of children’s clothing and footwear through digital channels;
- changes in labeling and regulation of light industry products;
- use of digital tools and artificial intelligence in collection development;
- practical approaches to assortment planning and sales management.
A special focus is placed on applied formats — masterclasses and case sessions analyzing real business situations, from increasing retail sales to building marketing strategies and managing customer bases.
In addition, the project includes fashion shows and special initiatives aimed at supporting young designers and developing the industry.
This format allows participants not only to receive up-to-date market insights, but also to immediately adapt them to their own business objectives — whether in purchasing, brand development, or business scaling.
