Three African countries, namely Ethiopia, Kenya and Uganda have sent in their delegates to Tirupur to participate on a seminar conducted by knitwear industrialists. Meanwhile, four knitwear companies from the city have commenced operation of their factories in Ethiopia. The seminar discussed increasing investments in the textile and garmenting sectors in the African countries.

The seminar was conducted under the aegis of 'Supporting Indian Trade and Investment for Africa' (SITA) Project. The project is implemented by the International Trade Center-Geneva (ITC).
