TEA's New Team Aims to Boost Tirupur's Apparel Exports
26 October 2023, Mumbai
The new TEA team, led by KM Subramanian, is committed to boosting Tirupur's apparel exports to Rs. 30,000 crore. This ambitious goal follows in the footsteps of Padamshree Dr. Sakthivel, who pioneered India's apparel export journey.
Visionary
Dr. Sakthivel has enabled Tirupur to align its manufacturing and purchasing capabilities, leading to a significant export order of $50 million in a year.
TEA's Brand Tirupur initiative makes it the only city that manufactures and exports apparel, striving for carbon footprint certification by 2030.
Evolving story
For the first time, domestic apparel brands have been acknowledged in the context of manufacturing and sourcing from Tirupur.
Notably, Tirupur has embraced sustainability, ESG standards, and compliance naturally over the last four decades.
