TIDITSSIA pitch for textile park in Manapparai

At the four-day Buyer Seller Meet, the first ever, inaugurated in the city on Thursday, the Tiruchirapalli District Tiny and Small Scale Industries Association (TIDITSSIA) pitched for the textile park in Manaparai, a hub for minor readymade manufacturing units.

Manaparai has road and rail connectivity, by setting up a textile park would greatly help in not only give a potential platform for small powerloom manufacturers to promote their products in both domestic and international markets but also help in generating employment.

N Kanagasabapathy, president of TIDITSSIA said that they have 25 acres of land in Mondipatti village near Manapparai for the purpose of establishing a dedicated textile park. They are in discussion with the district administration in this regard.

According to him, Manapparai is an ideal location for a textile park since the quantity of minor readymade manufacturing units and even exporters are highest among the district in nearby Puthanatham village.
TIDITSSIA wanted Powerloom Development and Export Promotion Council (PDEXCIL) to help small powerloom manufacturers and promote textile industries in Tiruchy district.
According to the association, Tiruchy functions as a textile sector hub for the adjoining districts including Ariyalur, Perambalur, and Pudukkottai.
PDEXCIL, which organized the four day the Buyer-Seller event with the Regional Office of Textile Commissioner at Coimbatore, has an exhibition featuring 23 stalls. This is intended to benefit the small scale manufacturers to find suitable buyers and establish their brand name.
They would be holding an international-level Buyers-Sellers meet in Bangalore by November 2016.
