A number of distinguished dignitaries, including Sunil Sethi, head of the Fashion Design Council of India, and Upendra Prasad Singh, secretary of the Indian government’s ministry of textiles, took part in the grand inaugural ceremony of Gartex Texprocess in New Delhi.
The trade show has over 200 exhibitors and more than 1,000 items and pieces of machinery from various industries, making it a high-value business platform.
The seventh edition of Gartex Texprocess India is currently underway in PragatiMaidan in New Delhi, opening doors to new product presentations and providing a chance to network with more than 200 firms from the garment and textile machinery, textiles, accessories, and associated sectors.
Addressing the industry post-inauguration, Singh stated: “The Indian government is working towards upscaling size and scale of textile industry through policies such as the mega textile park which is aimed at solving the problem of fragmented value chain as well as size and scale. Sustainability and circularity in the textile ecosystem also need to be developed. We are also focusing on incentivising textile machine manufacturing to encourage foreign manufacturers to build textile machinery within India.”
