The 10th Intex India concluded on a successful note with the presence of textile manufacturers & suppliers from 8+ countries showcasing innovative, fashionable and sustainable textiles that attracted trade buyers from 22+ countries who visited the show looking to source a wide variety of textiles from India and international markets.

Today, India is known as one of the world leaders in textiles and is a key element of the global value chain being the world’s fifth-largest exporter for apparel, home, and technical textile products. Over the last few years Indian industry has dramatically increased production to fulfil the increasing demands of the domestic as well as export markets. India now expects industry growth at 8% CAGR to reach $100 billion by 2030. This target would help India double its share of the global textile and apparel trade from the current level of 5%.

As the demand for man-made fibre (MMF) textiles all over the world is increasing as a substitute for cotton amid changes in global fashion trends, Intex India exhibition would offer international manufacturers & suppliers opportunities to explore new business and investment avenues in India under this sector and increase their supply-chain to fulfil the demand for sourcing innovative, eco-friendly and functional textiles which is much needed by the Indian apparel and fashion industry. Further, to increase its global market share, Indian manufacturers are producing a value-added range of garments and fashion accessories for the global buyers to increase their sourcing from India and reduce their dependency on China. Also, Intex platform will assist the domestic apparel industry to offer high-value and sustainable garments to the fashion-conscious and high-spending Gen Z and millennials consumers.

Intex India has been organised with the purpose to accelerate this growth by supporting it through a strong business platform. To further strengthen industry, Intex India will see the presence of international suppliers from China, Korea, Thailand, Belarus, Italy, USA, Vietnam, Uzbekistan, Sri Lanka, Bangladesh & others.
