Kashmira Mirza
Transforming Today For A Better Tomorrow!

WHAT ARE YOUR THOUGHTS ON THE 66TH NATIONAL GARMENT FAIR?

The fact that the number of Visitors bettered the numbers from last January by over 25 per cent, surely indicated the revival of positivity in the market. Of course, like all Trade Shows, some participants fared well, some so-so, and some not so well. But, this is beyond the sphere of the organisers, and is inevitable. From my interaction with some of the participants, the overall response was encouraging and positive.

WHAT DO YOU HAVE TO SAY ABOUT THE ORGANISATION AND PLANNING OF THIS FAIR?

I was very satisfied, especially with the ease of registration, with more and more Retailers opting for the online route. It reduced the waiting time at the counters, and gave the Retailers more time with their vendors.

HOW DID THE APEX AWARDS FUNCTION GO AND WHAT WAS THE BUZZ ON THE GROUND LIKE?
