After the great success of the 1st Made in Pakistan Expo in Mumbai in April 2014, Pakistan Readymade Garments Manufacturer and Exporters Association (PRGMEA) with the support of Association of Indian Industries are organising the 2nd Made in Pakistan Expo in Mumbai titled "Festival of Friendship" at World Trade Centre, Mumbai.

During the six-day event, besides the exhibition, delegation of high-profile Pakistani businessmen would also visit India to explore bilateral trade opportunities in various sectors.

Over 80 top companies and brand names have so far registered themselves to represent Pakistan in the 2nd Made in Pakistan Exhibition.

PRGMEA chairman Arshad Aziz is confident that the event will not only promote trade but also offer a chance for the people to feel and own the highest quality Pakistani products. Alongside the exhibition, there will be a "Pakistan Fashion Show" of leading Pakistani designers where they will display their latest lines of top-end designer wear.

The Pakistan's economy and exports are showing a remarkable recovery and growth. This has been achieved with the hard work and efforts undertaken by the business community with the full support of the government of Prime Minister Mohammad Nawaz Sharif.

The people of Pakistan have been showing extraordinary resilience in the face of multiple challenges. Pakistan was destined to become a regional economic and commercial hub, given its location and enormous resources.

The Chairman PRGMEA said that leaders from both the countries had articulated their mutual desire for peace and development. It was now important to move forward towards realizing their vision. He emphasized that Pakistan was committed to exploring all possible avenues for enhancing mutual understanding and bilateral co-operation, adding that the time has come to move beyond the rhetoric and transform the bilateral relationship into one of peace, co-operation and prosperity.

A six-day "Art Exhibition" will enable the visitors to acquaint themselves with the works of famous Pakistani artistes while a "Pakistan Food Court" will serve the best in Pakistani cuisine to visitors. The exhibition is being held in Mumbai (India) from August 31, to September 05, 2014.
