Apparel exports grew from US$ 9.69 billion in 2007-08 to US$ 13.73 billion in 2011-12 (which accounts for 4.48 per cent of India’s total exports in 2011-12). The Apparel Export Promotion Council is amongst the flagship councils that markets India’s apparels and textile products via buyer-seller meets across New York, London, Denmark, Tokyo, Australia, Chile & more such global fashion hubs. It is keenly marketing India as a leading ‘Fabric to fashion’ destination, promoting cities like New Delhi as an ideal meeting point for international buyers and business heads of major global brands who are scouting for top notch Indian suppliers and exporters.
