Some such initiatives that will take place in near future, include buying agent meet, JASSBA Fair 2020, various seminars with prestigious organisations of textile industry like Textiles Committee and others, proposed partnership with Clothing Manufacturers Association of India (CMAI) and many more.
With more than 500 good garment manufacturers (mostly SMEs) and an annual apparel business of approximately Rs. 10,000 crore, Jaipur is one of the garment manufacturing hubs of India, which is growing into export as well as domestic market.

He further added that GEAR will also organise health-focused seminars, doctor’s meet, motivational seminars and cricket matches for the benefit of garment factory owners as well as its staff.
The four-decade-old association, which recently held its 42nd Annual General Meeting (AGM), added 28 new members last year and now has a total of 292 members.
