Textech exhibitions, a boon for textile exports

Three exhibitions to showcase the textile and garment sector in Sri Lanka will be held from February 28 to March 2 at the Sri Lanka Exhibition and Convention Centre. It is organised by CEMS Global USA, a multinational exhibition organiser.

Textech Sri Lanka 2013 International Expo exhibition, an international exhibition on textile and garment technology and machinery along with concurrent exhibitions Dye+Chem Sri Lanka 2013 International Expo, an international exhibition on dyes, fine and speciality chemicals and Colombo International Yarn and Fabric Show 2013 are the three concurrent exhibitions.These international trade exhibitions will help further expand the fast growing Sri Lankan industrial sector and bring in reputed international manufacturers and suppliers. The Dye+Chem Sri Lanka 2013 targets the entire manufacturing sector of Sri Lanka, CEMS Global said.

The textile and apparel industry of South Asia holds the key position in the export sector. Keeping in mind the potential of this sector and to further boost exports, CEMS Global has been organising the Textech series of exhibitions for 14 years and brought this internationally branded exhibition to Sri Lanka last year.

With the increasing competition in the world market, the industries of Sri Lanka can expand their share in markets abroad and at the same time attract more foreign investments in the high-potential garment and textile industry, the organisers of the exhibition said. Exhibitors from 10 countries will participate and the exhibition will be open from 10 am to6.30 pm.
