The Textile Industry:


The global Textile Industry is valued at over USD 550 billion at the primarily sale level. It is one of the single largest job creators. The industry is fragmented in terms of geography and size. There has also been a traditional divide between the various segments of the Industry.

The Industry is also very traditional and slow in nature. High level of intermediation makes it an ideal candidate for a use of Information technologies. In addition, with the globalization of trade and trade reforms, a common platform catering to the need of the industry is of great use.

The YarnsandFibers Team is drawn from the Industry and has an in-depth knowledge of the Textile business.
