LUDHIANA : After proving to be a great boost to knitwear garment manufacturers the grand show in Ludhiana GMMSA EXPO INDIA 2020 concluded on Monday at Dana Mandi, Bahadurke Road. The Expo turned out to be a great show to get a glimpse of the manufacturing machines and accessories all under one roof. On the whole, the exhibition was a hub of innovation over the last four days and more than 50,000 people visited the exhibition.
GMMSA EXPO INDIA 2020 also facilitated the exhibitors for their participation and sought their support for next year 2021. Among the vast array of Chinese, Korean, Taiwanese and European machines that were on display, the Make in India ideal stands out among its contemporaries. Manufacturers have made it a point to display their indigenously manufactured machines at the exhibition.
This comes as a heartening move for India to become independent of foreign products. From knitting machines, to mini boilers to packaging machines; one could see Indian products standing proudly alongside foreign ones. Many domestic manufacturers say that while it is cheaper to manufacture machines locally, there are some parts of the machines that need to be imported from countries like China.
