Pakistan Readymade Garments Manufacturers and Exporters Association (Prgmea) has decided to hire foreign consultants in active collaboration with Export Promotion Bureau (EPB) for the advanced packaging and marketing of country's export-oriented garments items, which has become vital now.
Prgmea's Central Chairman Ijaz A. Khokhar stated this while talking to newsmen, here on Friday. He said the Prgmea had also decided to establish Mini-Training Institutes in Sialkot, Daska, Sambrial, Pasrur, Chawinda, Zafarwal, Shakargarh and Narowal for producing trained and skilled labour force for value added garments industry on priority basis.
He urged the government to adopt an effective business-friendly diplomacy and discourage the exports of raw materials by focussing on value addition through motivating the businessmen towards promotion of value addition.
