Kingpins, the denim-focused tradeshow, is launching a new edition in Miami.

The new boutique denim sourcing show will debut January 11/12, 2017 at Mana Wynwood, and tailor the Kingpins concept for Latin American garment factories and denim brands. It will have a capacity for 31 exhibitors and feature a curated selection of resources that span the globe and the denim sourcing supply chain, the company said.

"The Latin American denim market is important and we have found that our Kingpins concept resonates with many in this community – so much so that they are traveling to our shows in Amsterdam and New York," said Andrew Olah, founder of Kingpins Show. "By going to Miami we see an opportunity to better serve them and to introduce our exhibitors to new customers they are eager to do business with. And we believe some American companies won't mind going to Miami in January."

Kingpins also recently announced the launch of WHY, the first-ever trade show to focus on branding in the denim industry. The show will run concurrently with Kingpins' Amsterdam edition and be located adjacent to it, at the Transformatorhuis in Amsterdam's Westerpark.
