SGS Reports on Saudi Lifestyle Week 2025
BAAR, SWITZERLAND / AGILITYPR.NEWS / December 17, 2025 / SGS, the world’s leading testing, inspection and certification company, has published an article covering its participation in the first Saudi Lifestyle Week (SLW), held from October 6-9, 2025, in Riyadh. Supporting global brands, this multi-sector trade event brought together fashion, sportswear and design brands in one of the country’s leading lifestyle exhibitions of the year.
Bringing together over 100 exhibitors, including strong delegations from Italy, Spain, Portugal, Germany and the UK, the event showcased the best of Europe’s major labels as well as emerging talent, helping connect international lifestyle brands with Saudi retailers.
Product conformity is essential for companies targeting markets in the Kingdom. The Saudi Standards, Metrology and Quality Organization (SASO) and its SALEEM/SABER program regulate textiles, footwear, leather and sporting goods, which must comply with relevant technical regulations and obtain certificates of conformity (CoCs) before customs clearance. The need for reliable product conformity strategies was recognized by the strong interest in SGS at SLW from established and up-and-coming brands.
As Saudi Arabia’s retail sector continues to grow rapidly, with a market projected to top USD 282 billion beyond 2024, SGS’s profile at SLW underscores the key role of robust compliance strategies at this valuable, high-quality trade platform.
