Investors from various Indian states are flocking to Gorakhpur (UP)
03 September 2021, Mumbai:
Because the Uttar Pradesh government is putting a lot of effort into promoting Gorakhpur as a garment manufacturing center, it has begun to attract manufacturers from neighboring states.
Ashok Prasad Khajni, a Kolkata-based entrepreneur with garment manufacturing plants in both Kolkata and Odisha, is currently establishing a shirt factory in Gorakhpur. A total of 500 jobs are projected to be created as a result of the facility.
Notably, the business will mostly serve international buyers. According to media sources, the new facility will cover around 2 acres. Though the factory was originally planned to be built on 4 acres, due to rising land prices, the unit will now be built on just 2 acres. One of the major advantages of Gorakhpur, according to Ashok, is its greater connectivity with other Indian states.
It's worth noting that the Gorakhpur Industrial Development Authority (GIDA) is now constructing 101 plots in Readymade Garment Park, ranging in size from 500 square meters to 5,239 square meters. MSMEs will get access to flattened factories as well. Yogi Adityanath, the Chief Minister of Uttar Pradesh, has often stated that Gorakhpur would be developed as a garment manufacturing center.
