This industry plays a vital role in the global fashion and apparel sector, providing essential accessories that complement a wide range of formal and semi-formal attire.

Manufacturers also rely on specialized machinery, including sewing machines, cutting tables, and pressing equipment, to ensure efficient and consistent production. Additionally, skilled labor, particularly in the areas of pattern design and hand-finishing, is a crucial input for this industry.
