Tiruppur's textile industry is experiencing a significant revival, driven by growing international demand for knitwear garments.
Over the past few years, Tirupur’s fabric and garment producers have been reportedly negatively impacted by the imports of ready-made garments and fabrics from Bangladesh. In light of this, a joint meeting was called for in the Tirupur Exporters Association with representatives from Tirupur-based groups of fabric and ready-made garment manufacturers.
As India's air cargo volume is expected to quadruple over the next two decades-the largest projected growth of any worldwide market-a rebound of the country's apparel exporters could further ignite this push.
The political unrest in Bangladesh could turn out to be a blessing for Tamil Nadu’s Tiruppur, India’s knitwear hub, which contributes to almost 55 per cent of the country’s exports in the sector.
India's textile hub of Tiruppur is experiencing a remarkable resurgence, with apparel export units operating at near-maximum capacity and receiving a surge of orders from the United States and United Kingdom.
India’s textile/apparel export hub of Tirupur, near Chennai, in Tamil Nadu state, is bouncing back from the days of frequent production cuts and disruption caused by a dearth of orders.
