Garment manufacturers in Indore have urged the State Government to develop a convention hall for their RMG units to help them promote their goods, and also organize exhibitions. The city houses over 1,500 small-scale RMG producers of ready-made garments.

Indore is home to many RMG manufacturers focusing on children’s clothing, says Ashish Nigam, President, Readymade Textile Dealers Association. However, the city lacks a convention centre where these RMG units can showcase their products despite thousands of MSME units operating in it, emphasizes Nigam. A convention facility would offer these domestic RMG units a local centre to showcase their work and build their enterprises.

The association also urges the State Government to develop a cluster for these RMG units in the area. This will help boost the industry’s output and help it add more value to products, it adds.
