Pakistan upgrades textile sector

Pakistan has adopted a comprehensive strategy to revive the textile sector.

Existing power looms will be upgraded to switch over to technical textiles in addition to producing the traditional cheap grey cloth. The old, obsolete and depreciated machinery will be replaced to increase the profitability of power loom owners. There will be comprehensive value addition in the shape of fashion garments. This is necessary to earn the optimum profit from the textile chain. It is the last stage of cotton that brings the maximum profit.

The organized weaving sector has sufficient resources and capacity to upgrade its production but the unorganized sector needs facilities and incentives for the replacement of old and depleted machinery.

Small weavers have to be convinced to replace the old machinery with high tech and sophisticated machinery.

Linkages will be established with technical textile centers in order to adopt new technologies. The process of upgradation will begin with an increase in profits of small, medium and micro units.

The future objective will be to produce and export garments and fashion garments instead of exporting raw cotton yarn or low priced finished and semi finished products.

The cotton chain will be diversified. Polyester will be mixed with cotton to produce a wide range of textile products which cater to the needs of different markets.
