Anita proposed to set up a facilitation centre at the Directorate of Handicrafts in Bhubaneswar, so that queries of handicraft exporters can be solved.
The facilitation centre would meet buyer-seller requirement, assist in organizing visits for exporters and guarantee their participation in trade fairs.
Subjects of export pricing, procedures, documentation and incentives in handicrafts for export promotions were discussed during the workshop.
The Textile Secretary also invited state industrialists to invest and establish production base here for development and promotion of artisan clusters.
