Addressing the media, Mr. Premal Udani, President, CMAI, said, "This is in sync with the fact that today India is positioned to fulfill the vital sourcing needs of theentire world and has emerged as a major manufacturing centre for apparel, especially after dismantling of quotas earlier this year."
Mr. Rajesh Bhagat, Managing Director, Worldex India, added, "A booming economy driven by large scale consumer-spending offers an ample opportunity for suppliers of speciality and fancy fabrics and accessories to tap this new and exciting market."
Talking about Intex, Mr. Bhagat said, "In anticipation of the inherent post-quota advantage that India and the entire South Asian region has, we felt it was critical to have an organised platform for a wider range of apparel fabrics & accessories.
Intex will provide the Indian participants with triple advantage of showcasing to the domestic apparel manufacturers, exporters and international markets at the same time - an advantage no other international show can offer."
Intex shall also serve as a gateway to international companies for the high potential south Asian markets of India, Pakistan, Sri Lanka, Bangladesh, Mauritius and Nepal.
Intex is organised by Worldex India, a company with over two decades of experience in managing and organising trade fairs, in association with The Clothing Manufacturers' Association of India (CMAI).
Concludes Mr. Udani, "Post-quota, focus is shifting to Asia where China and India are emerging as the major players. Our garment manufacturers and exporters need access to high quality fabrics and accessories at globally competitive prices if we have to achieve our export target of US $ 25 billion by 2010."
