Organized by the Syntheitc and Rayon Export Promotion Council (SRTEPC), the three-day textile exhibition ‘Source India 2022’ generated a business worth $150 million despite recording only 75 visitors from 30 countries. The event raked in orders worth around $300 million that will be sealed after completing some formalities in the coming days. Around 52 exhibitors from India participated. Buyers from Africa, Europe, Turkey, the US and a few other regions visited the exhibition.

Eunice Gakungu, a buyer from Nairobi said, the exhibition was well organized and she could find products she was looking for. The exhibition will help India textile exports as majority of buyers are not going to China, say experts. Currently, Chinese suppliers are not in a position to supply orders on time and at old rates, they add.
