REGIONAL CORPORATION &
PROSPECTS
• Can the Asian Countries that do not
have a fabric base secure their
requirements in future?
• Why should China supply fabrics when
they can add value domestically?
• The SAARC countries – India & Pakistan
have large cotton cultivation's & modern
textile mills.
• ASEAN countries produce competitively
priced textile. Can they be used
regionally?
• Should countries specialize in products?
PRIVATE-PUBLIC PARTNERSHIP
• Prepare a strategy- where you want to be in 5
yrs
• 80/20 rule. 20% account for 80% of exports.
• Large firms – 20% should take the lead as the
critical mass is important
• Improve the Enabling Environment-
Cost of Utilities, Transaction Costs, Regional
Corporation, Market Access, Image Building,
Labour Laws
PRIVATE – PUBLIC PARTNERSHIP
• Supply Chain Management –Sourcing 60% or more
consists of fabrics & another 10-15% on Accessories
• Benchmarking – at firm level. The FIT- an ITC tool to
benchmark domestically, Internationally or with
Buyers requirements
• Human Resource Development – Skills development
at all levels
