Message

It is with great pleasure that I contribute
this message for the Intex South Asia
2015, exhibition in Colombo.
Intex South Asia 2015 organised by
Worldex India Exhibition and Promotion
Pvt. Ltd. for the first time in Sri Lanka,
provides a one stop comprehensive
sourcing & trading platform for apparel
manufacturers, importers, buying houses
and brands. This event will also create a unique opportunity
to connect and source a wide range of innovative, trendy
and high performance fabrics and accessories from quality
suppliers of major textile destinations in the world such as
India, China, Bangladesh, Pakistan, Thailand and Korea.
Given the importance of creating opportunities for the
Sri Lanka Apparel Industry for sourcing high end innovative,
quality raw materials, EDB joined hands with Worldex India
Exhibition and Promotion Pvt. Ltd., in organising Intex South
Asia 2015 as the Co-organiser.
Apparel industry is the main export industry in Sri Lanka and
major part of raw material i.e., fabrics & accessories required
for the industry are imported from countries such as China,
Pakistan, India, etc. This event will certainly facilitate the
Sri Lankan apparel manufacturers to source their fabric and
accessory requirement under one platform.
I congratulate Worldex India Exhibition and Promotion Pvt.
Ltd., for organising Intex South Asia 2015 and wish the
exhibition all success.

Chairman & Chief Executive
