Gujarat, known for its textile industry, is the largest cotton producer in India with nearly 30% of cotton and 56% denim of the country’s total production, according to Messe Frankfurt India.
“Bringing garment and apparel machinery manufacturers together with fabric manufacturers will have a dual advantage as it will not only open business opportunities for our members but also pave the way for developing infrastructure and modernising technology to make the State’s textile industry competitive both in domestic and international markets,” said Gaurang Bhagat, President, Maskati Cloth Market Mahajan.
Gartex Texprocess India offers the industry a platform to bring forth industry innovations, hold creative and collaborative discussions with potential buyers and leverage the textile industry’s strong professional network. Through its focused segments of Denim Show, Fabrics & Trims Show and the co-located Screen Print India, Texprocess India will present a combined showcase of textiles and garment machinery, fabrics and accessories, digital and screen-printing technologies as well as denim innovations from 4 – 6 August 2022 at Pragati Maidan, in New Delhi.
“Fabrics are the pivot around which the entire garment manufacturing industry spins and as fashion evolves, innovations and variety in every aspect of garment making increases which makes the ‘Fabrics & Trims Show’ a much-needed segment on the show floor. This development is another important example of Gartex Texprocess India’s commitment to partnering with leaders in the industry and our objective of creating collaborative and growth opportunities within the sector. We are proud to combine strengths with Maskati Cloth Market Mahajan and confident that this partnership will provide a scalable platform and strong business boost to fabric players,” said Raj Manek, executive director and board member, Messe Frankfurt Asia Holdings Ltd.
