India ranks among the top target countries for any
company sourcing textiles and apparel. Indeed, apart from China, no other
country can match the size, spread, depth, and competitiveness of the Indian
textile and apparel industry. Moreover, the global elimination of quotas at
the end of 2004 has greatly enhanced the opportunities for sourcing from
India. This special report focuses on the opportunities which India now
offers as a source of textiles and apparel. Based on a detailed examination
of the performance of a large number of apparel and home textile products in
the US and EU markets in 2005, the report identifies those which offer the
greatest scope for sourcing from India. The report includes profiles of
Indian textile and apparel companies which are potential partners for
sourcing or collaboration. It also examines the competitiveness of India's
yarn and fabrics industry, identifies opportunities for foreign
collaboration, and provides a wealth of statistical data.
