Banda Garment Unit Thrives on Seasonal Shifts
9 Feb
Summary
- The unit adapts production to seasonal demands, from winter hoodies to summer wear.
- It supplies traders across central India, including Chhattisgarh and Odisha.
- A Rs 5 lakh loan facilitated expansion, adding crucial machinery and capacity.
In Banda, a small ready-made garment unit demonstrates resilience by dynamically shifting its product line with the seasons. This adaptability ensures continuous operation throughout the year, catering to evolving market demands across central India. The business began with a single machine and has grown to four, with plans for further expansion.
Led by Ravi, the unit sources fabric from Ludhiana and processes it through cutting, stitching, pressing, and finishing. Its goods are sold to traders who distribute them to various states, including Chhattisgarh and Odisha, contributing to Banda's reputation for ready-made clothing.
The operation's steady rhythm is supported by a Rs 5 lakh loan obtained under the Mukhyamantri Yuva Udyami Vikas Abhiyan (CM YUVA) Yojana. This credit was instrumental in acquiring additional machinery and materials, significantly increasing the unit's production capacity.
Ravi's family is also involved, with his children assisting in workshop tasks. This blend of learned skill, strategic adaptation, and family support has cultivated a stable and consistent business in a competitive trade.
