The recent rise in weddings led to a 10 per cent surge in Indore’s ready-made garments’ exports to Andhra Pradesh and Tamil Nadu.
The rising demand for RMG from Indore helped clothing manufacturers in the city clear most of their inventories, and generate funds for new acquisitions to meet the demand for weddings. The city has over 2,500 small and medium-sized garment makers. Its garment units record highest demand during festivals.
Ashish Nigam, President, Readymade Textile Dealers Associations, says, orders for the season are received months in advance. This year, the city is likely to host many weddings, boosting retail purchases by almost 10 per cent.
As per industry analysis, Indore-based garment makers’ dispatches to southern markets have increased this year over the previous season.
