With the new textile policy in place the state of Andhra Pradesh is going all out to attract companies in the textile, apparel & garments space and thereby promote the State as a major destination for global textile brands.
This development bodes well for industrial parks such as the Brandix India Apparel City, now renamed Adhistan. Located on the outskirts of Visakhapatnam district, Adhistan spans 1,000 acres and houses 15 manufacturing units, standing as a fully integrated industrial park offering end-to-end solutions.
With the revised policy offering wide ranging incentives for new companies to come and set up in AP, Adhistan is poised to become the go-to location for businesses seeking advanced infrastructure and operational ease.
“We are truly a plug-and-play facility with unmatched, state-of-the-art infrastructure,” said Mr. Suchira Surendranath, Director of Strategy & Investments at Adhistan, in an exclusive interview with Vizag Industrial Scan.
Adhistan offers a wealth of benefits, from a highly skilled workforce to best-in-class infrastructure.
