Re: Showcasing Indian fabrics at a Fashion Show being organized by Indian Consulate on 21st February, 2016 in Vietnam
As you are aware, Vietnam has emerged as one of the leading garment - manufacturing countries in the world, which is currently valued at more than US$ 20 billion. USA is one of the major buyers, which is sourcing its requirements of garments from Vietnam. Besides this, Vietnam itself is a market of more than US$ 10 Billion for MMF Textiles, where India’s share is only 1%. Hence, there is an excellent opportunity and scope for Indian Textiles Manufacturing / Exporting companies to enhance their share in the Vietnamese market of textiles & clothing.
