Lankan Garment Manufacturer To Increase Sourcing From India
Sri Lanka based garment manufacturer Aitken Spence is planning to expand its apparel business by increasing sourcing from India.
Aitken Spence Apparel, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Aitken Spence, is currently the sourcing, designing and tailoring partner for Reliance Industries’ (RIL’s) Gap business in India.
RIL is the India franchise for Gap, an American clothing and accessories brand and Aitken Spence Apparel has been supporting Gap’s kids wear category for Reliance since the last couple of years.
“The Sri Lankan company will now expand its offering by entering into Gap’s men’s and women’s wear categories as well as into many other brands sold by Reliance as well as other private brands,” The Hindu reported.
Aitken sources various fabrics from India and sells the finished products back to Reliance for selling in the market.
