at Ludhiana receives overwhelming response during so called Slow down Market”Says Jugal Kishore Pansari, President ITAMMA.
Mr. Jugal Kishore Pansari, President ITAMMA informed that, when we declared about the event some 6 months before, there was a very good response by recording a booking of 40 stalls. However noting the slow down business trend in last 2-3 months, the members were in dilemma about the response of visitors to the event. Accordingly we started interacting with the Textile Industry representatives at Ludhiana, giving the details and the importance of our event ‘22nd Product-Cum-Catalogue Show’ scheduled on 20th Sept’2019 at Hotel Park Plaza in Ludhiana. This assignment was taken seriously and proactively by our Members and their agents and staff located in and around Ludhiana, thereby explaining the importance and the advantage of this event to the Industry people.
Mr. Pansari further added that during such business slow down, the Industry should spare some time on R & D, exploring statistical DATA, knowing new products & processes required by the Market as well as fruitful interaction with the Machine & Component manufacturers and suppliers for product diversification.
