Textile Asia is the ONLY Textile & Garment Machinery show of Pakistan and India which is a UFI Approved Event by the Global Association of Exhibition Industry, Paris- France. This worldwide recognition achieved by Ecommerce Gateway reflects the proof of high quality, thus providing exhibitors and visitors alike with the assurance that they will benefit from a professionally planned and managed concept. Textile Asia will encompass all the major industries including textile machinery, garment machinery, weaving machinery, embroidery machinery, knitwear machinery and accessories. The Exhibition is poised to play a pivotal role in offering a platform for joint ventures and collaborations among the local textile industry and international entrepreneurs. The Event is designed to act as a podium where it will highlight the products and services of the textile industry not only of Pakistan but also of the International forum.

While addressing the pre-event media briefing, President Ecommerce Gateway, Dr. Khursheed Nizam said that “In order to compete in the international market, the Pakistani Textile & Garment product manufacturers need to continuously upgrade their manufacturing units & machineries. For this, most of our SME sector does not have the resources to send technicians and other experts abroad for research & purchase of Textile & Garment Machineries. Textile Asia thus provides such a platform to our SME sector where all the relevant decision makers jointly visit, test and purchase machineries.” Moreover, the Event on such a large-scale promotes the soft image of Pakistan internationally and the foreign participants return back to their countries remembering Pakistan as the hub of business activities, which is a different perception from the one promoted by the western media. This will have a multiplying affect, and would result in increased foreign participation in the coming years. From Textile Asia, the relevant institutions & students also get aware of the advancements in the sector

Textile Asia is being organized for the 6th consecutive year by Ecommerce Gateway Pakistan (Pvt) Ltd. and Jamal’s Yellow Pages of Pakistan with Ministry of Textile Industry, in support with Government of Sindh, City District Government Karachi, TEXMAP Pakistan, APTMA, PRGMEA, PCFA, Pakistan Hosiery Manufacturing Association, Pakistan Bed-ware Exporters Association, PAKSEA, Pakistan Commercial Exporters of Towels Association, PYMA and Towel Manufacturer’s Association of Pakistan.
