Ethiopian textile and garment sector driven byIndian investment: Indian Envoy to Ethiopia
By Rakesh Kumar and Mohit Sharma
The Indian and Ethiopian dignitaries at the opening ceremony of ITMA Africa in Addis Ababa.
ADDIS ABABA, FEB. 14—The texti le industry in
Ethiopia is the third largestmanufacturing industry and it isdriven by investment from India.The Indian entrepreneurs have cometo Ethiopia to take benefit from theduty free and quota free access tothe West, stated Mr. AnuragSrivastava, Ambassador of India toEthiopia, Embassy of India, heretoday.
Speaking at the inaugurationceremony of the ITME Africa – Atextile machinery exhibitionorganised by India ITME Society,Mr. Srivastava said that as Ethiopiaemerges as the hub of textiles andgarmenting in Africa, India will notonly be the sources of investments,but will also be a source of textileand garment machineries and other inputs of textile production.
Earlier, Ms. Dorothy Tembo, Executive Director, International TradeCommission said that ITME Africa 2020 was a tribute to the growingpartnership between India and Africa. Over the past two decades, tradebetween India and the African continent has increased more than eight-fold. Today, India is Africa’s fourth-largest trading partner. The Kenyanand Ethiopian manufacturing sectors are among India’s top-10 foreigndirect investment destinations, she informed.
Quoting Exim Bank of India, Ms. Tembo said that India’s exportsof machinery to Africa were valued at around $2.3 billion in 2017 –representing about 14 percent of India’s global machinery exports. AndITME Africa will help to strengthen India’s engagement with the continentas a preferred supplier of technology and equipment to the continent’sburgeoning textile sector, she added.
The ITC Executive Director noted that East Africa has also becomean emerging hub for apparel sourcing. The region has attracted considerableexport-oriented foreign direct investment over the past few years.
An example of this is in Ethiopia’s newly built industrial parksthat have led to the creation of more than 50,000 new jobs, mostly forwomen, in apparel factories. With the sector’s growth trajectory, demandfor new technology will further increase.
According to an ITC survey across 110 textiles and apparelcompanies in East Africa, the large majority of companies are interestedin upgrading technology and machinery.
This interest is driven by the companies’ need to comply with scaleand quality requirements. Companies also want to diversify their productsand markets, further upping the ante towards technological advancement.This is the need of the hour as in some countries, and in some segments ofthe value chain, machines are more than 20 years old. Furthermore,international buyers sourcing from the region are insisting that suppliersuse technologies that are efficient and sustainable, Ms. Tembo emphasised.
She observed that new technologies are paramount in establishinga more integrated and sustainable textiles and apparel sector in Africa;and in creating linkages between export-oriented garment companies anddomestic textiles companies. These currently exist in different eco-systems.
While companies are interested in upgrading their machinery, theyface challenges in accessing affordable finance, severely limiting theirability to invest in new technologies. Development Financial Institutionsare key players in technology upgrading, Ms. Tembo said and noted thatquite a few of these institutions are participating in ITME Africa 2020.
This is important because we also need to place a cursor on howcompanies can access funding for their capital expenditure. And financialinstitutions can see first-hand the demand and appetite for capital fromindustry, she said.
Ms. Tembo also acknowledged the participation of ITC’s partnerSouthern Indian Mills Association, Cotton Development and ResearchAssociation (SIMA CDRA), which works with national partners to improvecotton productivity in East Africa, resulting in increased farmer livelihoodsand thanked the EXIM Bank of India, and the Ethiopian Institute of TextileTechnology (EITEX), for their collaboration.
Mr. Hari Shankar, Chairman, Indian ITME Society in his addressinformed that more than 180 textiles engineering exhibitors from 15countries have come to Addis Ababa to showcase their latest technologyand machinery, all of which is relevant to the development of Africa’stextiles and apparel sector.
He informed that trade delegation and visitors from Botswana,Ethiopia, Ghana, Kenya, Rwanda, Tanzania, and Uganda, have confirmedtheir visits in order to meet the global textile machinery makers.
Ms. Seema Srivastava, Executive Director, India ITME Society saidthat the 3-day ITME Africa scheduled from 14th -16th Feb 2020 in AddisAbaba, Ethiopia is a pioneering event poised to be a catalyst not only forthe textile industry, but also for skill development, technical education intextile technology and engineering across the continent of Africa.
The intent of ITME Africa is to stimulate and encourage upgradation
of existing technological capacitiesin order to improve themanufacturing effectiveness,capacity, quality, facilitate increasedtrade, investment and joint ventures,thus leading to greater degree ofglobal trade between Africa, Indiaand rest of the world, she said.

Trends Heading into 2020
How a Focus on Work Can Grow AthleisureTo see athleisure’s influence on pop culture, one need to look
no further than both the Grammy’s and the Super Bowl half-timeshow. Billie Eilish, the 18-year-old who set Grammy records as theyoungest winner in four major categories, wore crystal-embellishedGucci jogging pants, a matching baggy bowling shirt, and a limegreen turtleneck. At the Super Bowl, recording artist Shakiraeschewed high-heels for dazzling, low-wedge boots, followed byglittering, gold Adidas sneakers — the better to Zumba around thestage and shake those unstoppable hips.
Both women exemplified what consumers want to wear thesedays: fashionable comfort. Or comfortable fashion.
“The future success of the apparel industry will rely oncategories that act active but look fashion,” said The NPD Group’sMarshal Cohen, chief industry advisor. “Consumers are cravingfashion but don’t want to sacrifice the comfort and convenience ofactivewear that they’ve grown accustomed to.”
The athleisure market was valued at $155.2 billion in 2018and is expected to reach $257.1 billion by 2026, registering a CAGRof 6.7% from 2019 to 2026, according to a report from Allied MarketResearch.
“I know there’s been a lot of conversation about if streetwearis going away,” said Michael Fisher, vice-president, creative directorfor men’s wear at Fashion Snoops, a global trend forecasting agency.“A lot of people read an article by Virgil Abloh where he saidstreetwear is about to be dead. As a trend forecaster, I don’t see thathappening any time soon. It’s definitely done something interesting.There’s been this trickle up quality of streetwear. For a long time,it was a young men’s game. And as we’ve seen over the last coupleof years, the elements of streetwear and athleisure have beenincorporated into everything, the traditional market, thecontemporary market, tailored clothing — everything you couldimagine. It’s not going anywhere. Its influence is just being foldedinto classic, everyday men’s wear styles.”
The more people realize how comfortable sneakers, joggers,and yoga pants are, the more they’re incorporating them intoeveryday activities, like their workday.
Just about three-quarters of all consumers (74 percent) saythey would be more likely to look for clothing that feels likeactivewear but looks like professional workwear, according to theCotton Incorporated Lifestyle Monitor™ Survey. More than 4 in 5consumers (82 percent) say they would be more likely to look forwork clothes that are designed to be more versatile.
Some brands have worked office-appropriate active items intotheir mix. Lululemon created the “Office, Travel, Commute”collection for both men and women. Styles include the men’s ABCpant, made of a cotton blended technical canvas, and its “Alongthe Way” cotton blend sweater dress. Athleta has a whole range ofwork appropriate active pieces, like its moisture-wicking, water-resistant gallery top for women and a range of dresses.
Comfortable, active-inspired dresses are more than just aniche category. The NPD Group says dresses overall experienced a3 percent decline to just under $15 billion last year, but athletic
dresses were expected to offset those declines over the next twoyears.
Comfort-driven apparel is sought by more than half of allconsumers (53 percent), who say they would be interested in buyingclothes designed for commuting by bicycle, public transportation,or walking, according to the Monitor™ data. And 53 percent alsosay active or athleisure bottoms have replaced some of the denimjeans in their wardrobe.
To combat a decrease in denim sales, Levi’s introduced stretchto its women’s jeans in 2015 — and has seen sales increase fromless than $800 million to more than $1 billion annually. But it alsooffers women drawstring joggers, as well as denim leggings. Acollection of its men’s jeans is made with +Cool technology thatprovides breathability and moisture wicking.
Interestingly, it’s the older consumers who are embracingthe athleisure in the workplace. Nearly three-fourths (73 percent)of those aged 35-to-70 say that if they had to choose between a jobthat required formal clothes versus one that allows wearing casualapparel, they would choose the more casual job, according to theMonitor™ research. That compares to 65 percent of those aged13-to-34.
Perhaps even more surprising, the Monitor™ found 41percent of those ages 35-to-70 say they would turn down a job if itrequired wearing formal work clothes (like suits) every day. Just35 percent of their younger counterparts felt the same way.
For older workers, comfort has a dollar value, too. More thanone-third of older consumers (34 percent) say they’d rather havean informal dress code at work than an extra $5,000 in salary. Thatcompares to 29 percent of the younger set.
Edited, the retail decision platform, says traditional non-activebrands “continue to launch products at accessible price points, inline with their existing categories.” The firm said the active categoryhas seen a “steady grown in arrivals from fashion brands,” withJuly 2019 experiencing a 74 percent uptick in newness over theprevious year.
Young people are also interested in multi-purpose activepieces. Edited reported that last fall, American Eagle Outfittersfocused on featuring activewear that has crossover appeal.
“Transition is key, with consumers looking for ensembles thatcan go from the street to the StairMaster,” the firm stated. “In itsnewly launched TACKMA Tech performance collection, neons areprominent alongside stretch and moisture-wicking components.”
It also pointed to Tommy Sport, the Hilfiger line that launchedlast year. Pieces like the performance fleece hoodie and classic fleecepants also have moisture wicking and comfort stretch. And theycan pair easily with items from the tech streetwear in the TommyJeans line, like the women’s essential stirrup leggings or the men’sTommyXMercedes-Benz cotton-blend track pant.
“Today’s fashion is about easy style that is functional,” saysThe NPD’s Cohen, “an equation brands throughout the apparelindustry can and should apply.”

Necessary for govt to hearvoices of protest: Montek
NEW DELHI, FEB. 14-(PTI)Former Planning
Commission deputy chairpersonMontek Singh Ahluwalia saysthe government must hear voicesof protest and bring a healingtouch for creating anenvironment conducive torevival of investment, commentswhich come in the backdrop ofanti-citizenship lawdemonstrations.
He says the CitizenshipAmendment Act and possiblecreation of a National Registerof Citizens have led to large-scale protests from students andthe youth in many parts of thecountry.
"The voice of the youth isunlikely to be silenced easily. Inany society, students and theyouth are the ones most likely tospeak truth to power if onlybecause they have the least tolose and the most to gain," hesays.
Ahluwalia, who served asone of India's senior economicpolicymakers for three decades,makes these observations in hislatest book "Backstage: TheStory behind India's HighGrowth Years" which traversesthe politics, personalities, eventsand crises in the country's recenthistory.
He asserts that there is anurgent need to create an
environment of social harmony."To create an environment
conducive to the revival ofinvestment it is necessary for thegovernment to hear these voicesand bring a healing touch. Theneed to create an environment ofsocial harmony and peace is alsovital for the survival of the ideaof India," he says.
According to Ahluwalia,authoritarian systems can affordto suppress dissent with littleeffect on investment becauseinvestors are interested primarilyin social stability.
"In a democratic society,where dissent cannot besuppressed, it becomes necessaryto listen to voices of protest andtry to carry everyone along. Indiais much admired for itsadherence to democratic normsand this reputation needs to bepreserved," he argues.
He says that the 2019 LokSabha elections gave the NDAgovernment a massive mandateand Prime Minister NarendraModi has accumulated enormouspolitical capital.
"He must use it to tacklethe many serious economicchallenges that are emerging,and not allow divisive issues tooccupy centre-stage," he says.
Ahluwalia, who played akey role in the transformation ofIndia from a state-run to a
market-based economy, presentsthe story behind the country'seconomic growth in the first halfof the UPA's tenure as well as itsachievements in povertyalleviation.
He also discusses thesuccesses and failures of the UPAregime during which period heserved as deputy chairman of thePlanning Commission, aCabinet-level position. Hementions about the policyparalysis and allegations ofcorruption that came to mark thelast few years of UPA 2.
He calls his book,published by Rupa, a travelogueof India's journey of economicreforms "in which I had theprivilege of being an insider for30 long years".
