With the largest country participation at this prestigious global home textiles fair, India demonstrated its commitment to innovation, sustainability, and global partnerships. The minister invited all participating countries to attend ‘Bharat Tex 2025’ and explore investment opportunities in India’s thriving textile ecosystem, the Ministry of Textiles said in a press release.
During the Investors' Meet with textile and machinery manufacturers, the minister highlighted India's remarkable growth over the past decade and the significant rise in foreign direct investment (FDI). He emphasised the success of the 'Make in India' initiative in establishing India as a competitive manufacturing hub. Urging investors to capitalise on emerging opportunities, he cautioned against missing out on India’s expanding market. Inviting global investors, he encouraged them to “come and invest in India – Make in India, Make for the World.”
On the sidelines of Heimtextil, Singh also met with the Machinery and Equipment Manufacturers Association and IVGT, Germany. He urged them to strengthen their engagement with India’s textile sector, emphasising that India is one of the largest textile machinery buyers. The Union Minister noted that it would be a win-win situation for both sides if German manufacturers invest and produce machinery in India. Citing the success of a German sewing thread manufacturer already thriving in India, he encouraged other machinery manufacturers to explore and expand their investments in the Indian market.
During his visit, Singh toured various stalls at the exhibition, engaging with exhibitors to understand their latest offerings and innovations in home textiles. The craftsmanship of Indian exporters reaffirmed the government’s commitment to supporting the sector’s global aspirations.
