A 30-member delegation of the China National Garment Association (CNGA), led by Executive Vice President of Xie Qing and Ningbo Garment Association Vice president and Secretary General Mao Yihua met the Chairman / CEO, EDB, Executive Director, BOI, and members of JAAF recently.
During their stay in Sri Lanka, the delegation participated in a series of pivotal engagements, including business-to-business (B2B) meetings, factory visits, and dialogue with key governmental institutions.
Central to their visit was a business session at the EDB premises, during which the delegation had the opportunity to engage directly with 12 leading apparel companies in Sri Lanka. The B2B meetings provided a conducive environment for fostering direct dialogue and exploring potential synergies between the Chinese representatives and their Sri Lankan counterparts.
Engagements were also held with prominent individuals and institutions in Sri Lanka’s economic sector, highlighting the commitment of both sides to deepen cooperation and explore new avenues of cooperation.
The CNGA is a leading industry association with over 1,400 major members and covers most of the original apparel brands in China. The primary objective of this high-level delegation was to bolster existing trade relations and explore fresh avenues of collaboration and invest in the Sri Lankan apparel industry.
