‘Happening Haryana’ is an initiative of the Haryana government to de-stress the industrialists of the textile and apparel sector which were thoughtful of lack of investment and skilled manpower in the sector.
Held from March 7 in Gurgaon, the forthcoming investor summit focuses on textile, apparel and handloom industries along with other sectors such as agro-Based, food Processing industry,pharmaceutical and chemical industries,etc. The state government is looking forward to luring investors for these industries at the event.
Ashok G Rajani, chairman, apparel export promotion council said that they were happy that ‘Happening Haryana’ would see the apparel sector as an area of investment. He appreciates the initiative taken by the state in taking up the industry issues. The apparel sector has its share of problems.
However, with increase in investments they hope that the conditions will improve.
The Haryana government is keen on promoting Gurgaon, which is already an e-commerce and IT hub, as the apparel export hub in the global market.
P K Das, additional chief secretary, said that they have made a mark in the apparel sector in the global market. Gurgaon is the seventh largest apparel exporter in the world with a growth rate of 3.5%. He added that he would like the city to become a brand by itself like Surat and Varanasi.
Das on Saturday was speaking during a discussion on the scope of investment in the apparel industry. T L Satyaprakash, deputy commissioner; Sanjeev Raheja from CII, Chandigarh; Ashwani Gupta, additional director (Tech); S N Singh, joint director, district industries centre, Gurgaon; Vijay Mathur, additional secretary general, AEPC; and other industry members were also present at the meet.
