The Textile Care Allied Trades Association (TCATA) has announced “Summit of Possibilities” as the official theme for its 2026 Management & Educational Conference, taking place August 2–5, 2026, at the historic Omni Grove Park Inn in Asheville, North Carolina.
The theme reflects both the conference’s mountain setting and TCATA’s forward-looking focus on innovation, leadership, and opportunity within the textile care industry. Designed for manufacturers, distributors, and allied trades professionals, the 2026 conference will explore emerging trends, strategic growth, and practical solutions to help companies navigate an evolving business landscape.
“Summit of Possibilities captures exactly where our industry is headed,” said Conference Chair Wes Nelson, President of Sankosha USA. “It’s about coming together to share ideas, challenge assumptions, and uncover new opportunities that move our businesses and our industry forward.”
TCATA President Mack Magnus added, “Our annual conference is where collaboration and education intersect. In 2026, we’re excited to build on that tradition in a setting that inspires big thinking and meaningful connections.”
The Business Committee, chaired by Kristen Vos, Executive Vice President of R.R. Street & Co., is developing a robust educational program featuring timely and practical business insights, industry expertise, and peer-to-peer engagement. Additional details regarding speakers, sessions, and registration will be announced in the coming months.
