For apparel, the US is one of the top importing countries across the world and India is among the top five exporting countries. The US accounted for 35 percent of India's textile exports in the year 2O2O. However, this is just the beginning and yet a tremendous opportunity is waiting for the right suppliers. With an objective to improve the Bi-lateral trade between India and USA Octavia Exposium LLC had organized the first edition of the Global Textile Trade Fair (GTTF) in USA in 2022

Indian companies are opening their subsidiaries in USA to ensure their timely delivery of quality products and for customer support. These changes are remarkable for time to come.”

“The recent events like Announcement of the PM MITRA Textile parks at seven different strategic locations with an investment of 539.14 million USD in India during month of March 2023 to boost the textile sector in line with 5F (Farm to Fiber to Factory to Fashion to Foreign) vision. An Invitation to thousands of Indian Americans to witness President Biden and the First Lady’s welcoming event to Prime Minister Modi with a 21-gun salute at South Lawns of the White House in the USA. This is the first time in history that a country-specific diaspora is invited to the White House in such large numbers. Experts suggest that Prime Minister Mr. Narendra Modi’s visit will pave the way for further collaboration in areas of mutual interest such as technology, trade, education, and clean energy. We consider that both the events along with the catalyzing platform Global textile Trade Fair will certainly help improve the bilateral trade of Textile Industry of India and USA.” – Said Mr. Bobby Patel, Chairman, USA Committee of Global Textile Trade Fair.
