Welcome to Colombo and
Intex South Asia !
When we combine the full
economic potential, South
Asia emerges as a major
manufacturing and trading
bloc. This is all the more
evident in the field of textiles and garments.
It is with this vision that we have organised Intex South Asia
and we have added a lot of passion and dedication with the
objective of bringing together suppliers and buyers from
across South Asia and other parts of the world on to a single
networking platform.
We truly believe that Intex South Asia would prove to be a
dedicated sourcing platform for apparel manufacturers from
South Asia, South East Asia, Middle East and other regions.
It would also create opportunities for fabric and accessory
manufacturers from all over the world to showcase their latest
collections and trends at this important industry event.
South Asia is considered as one of the biggest garmenting
hub of the world and recognized as one of the best
manufacturing, sourcing and distribution destinations for
garments, textiles, accessories and manufactures 80% of
the world’s brands. India, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka & Pakistan
together exported garments worth US$ 49 billion in 2014-15
and are expected to reach US$ 84 billion by 2020. Therefore,
a dedicated sourcing platform like Intex South Asia was an
idea that had to happen.
We take this opportunity to thank the industry trade bodies,
industry leaders, the exhibitors, the buyers and the media
for sharing our vision and making Intex South Asia a true
industry event of the Region.
Wishing you successful participation and sourcing.
