Loading...×New Delhi: The textiles ministry has identified more than 4,000 textile-based startups that would be aided to scale up and get export ready in the next three-four years.The initiative aims to bring these businesses together, help them scale and build a pipeline of potential exporters, an official said.
“We need to actually create an aggregation of these businesses so that they can act as a multiplier to propel demand, take businesses to the remotest parts of the country and identify those with the potential to enter the export markets in the next three to four years,” the official said.
The ministry plans to engage with startups and small businesses across the sector, including social media-led ventures, provided that they are registered, particularly under the Department for Promotion of Industry and Internal Trade framework.
The proposed engagements are expected to help establish what support these enterprises need to move from small-scale operations to larger, export-oriented businesses.

The discussions will help the ministry assess the needs of these businesses and identify areas where government support could accelerate their growth, the official said.

These include the Fund of Funds for Startups and the Credit Guarantee Scheme for Startups, which support eligible businesses through funding and credit-related assistance.
