The Hon’ble Minister of Textiles opened the India Pavilion at Heimtextil 2025, which was hosted at Messe Frankfurt, showcasing India’s expanding textile industry might. India showed its dedication to innovation, sustainability, and international collaborations by participating in this prestigious global home textiles fair with the biggest number of countries.
The Minister spoke to manufacturers, importers, and exporters of home textiles worldwide, stressing India’s increasing competitiveness and the necessity of cooperation to attain sustainable growth. All participating nations were asked by HMoT to attend Bharat Tex 2025 and investigate investment prospects in India’s flourishing textile sector.
The “Make in India” campaign is a tried-and-true tactic propelling India’s rise as a competitive manufacturing powerhouse, the Minister said at the Investors’ Meet with the textile and machinery makers, highlighting India’s success narrative and rising FDI over the past ten years. He cautioned that avoiding the Indian market could result in a dread of missing out, and urged investors to take advantage of the expanding prospects. “Come and invest in India – Make in India, Make for the World,” he added, extending an invitation to international investors.
The Minister also met with IVGT, Germany, and the Machinery and Equipment Manufacturers Association on the sidelines of Heimtextil. India is one of the biggest buyers of textile machinery, thus HMoT asked them to increase their involvement with the Indian textile industry. The Union Minister pointed out that if German companies invested and produced machinery in India, it would benefit both parties. He urged other machinery makers to investigate and increase their investments in the Indian market by pointing to the success of a German sewing thread producer that was already doing well there.
In order to increase their worldwide visibility and foster their expansion in cutthroat markets, the government actively encourages Indian exporters to take part in international events such as Heimtextil.
The Minister visited a number of the exhibition’s stalls and spoke with exhibitors to learn about their most recent home textile developments and products. The government’s dedication to bolstering the industry’s international ambitions was underlined by the skill of Indian exporters.
Exporters and industry leaders enthusiastically attended the event, demonstrating India’s resolve to solidify its position as a world leader in the textile sector.
The Consul General of India in Germany, Mr. Rohit Kansal, Additional Secretary, Ministry of Textiles, and other Ministry officials joined the Minister and the Indian team. A wide variety of products were displayed at the inauguration by representatives from the Jute Board and five Export Promotion Councils (EPCs).
