Textile, Clothing and Footwear Trade Fair: Getex Group aims to strengthen its presence throughout the country

news-detail

 

“Despite the stiff competition from foreign products, we are attractive in the market because we have excellent products with good value for money,” says Fatah Amrouche, head of department responsible for trade shows and fairs with Getex public textiles and leather group.

According to Mr. Amrouche, Algerians “increasingly tend to consume locally made products and Made in Algeria has even become one of the criteria that determine the choice of their purchases.” “This encourages us to move forward to further increase and diversify our production and distribution network,” he told APS.

In this connection, he said that Getex had drawn up a roadmap for strengthening its presence throughout the country, particularly in the far south and the neighbouring wilayas.

In addition to the development of the leather and textile sector, he highlighted Getex’s contribution to promoting the circular economy through its waste collection and recycling plant in Bejaia. 'Part of the work involves collecting scraps of cloth to make kitchen items (dishcloth, tablecloth, apron...) and polypropylene scraps that are used to produce mop and various bedding products,' he explained.
