In the first phase, the group will invest $60m in a fabric factory with 55m metres of fabric output. It aims to achieve a revenue of $110m, contribute $6m to the state budget, and generate employment for 800 people.

The remaining capital will be earmarked for the second phase, in which the group will develop a jeans factory to double its revenue and generate jobs for 4,000 people.
