Indian textile show

THE Synthetic and Rayon Textile Export Promotion Council (SRTEPC) and the High Commission of India, Colombo are jointly organising the 4th 'Indian Textile Show' in Colombo at Hall 2 of the BMICH on January 11 and 12. SRTEPC has already had three successful trade shows of this kind in Sri Lanka.

The specialised exposition will highlight India's capabilities, and showcase products, in the field of synthetic textiles, fibre, yarn and made-ups.

The show will bring together Indian enterprises producing man-made fibres and will further strengthen the flourishing business relationships between the two countries.

Given the current scenario in the world apparel industry and the end of the MFA quotas, the Indian Government has offered special concessions to Sri Lanka for export of six million pieces at zero duty under the India-Sri Lanka Free Trade Agreement provided the fabric used is sourced from India.
