The Manufacturing Challenges in Domestic Sportswear Manufacturing (Video)

In India, the activewear market is growing rapidly. Many apparel manufacturers have started their own brand on the activewear segment and penetrating into the main market. There are many home-grown sportswear brands that are performing well along side of the international sportswear apparel brands.

Tantu, the alumni association of two textile engineering colleges of West Bengal, India, recently organized a seminar on Performance Textiles: Athleisure and Active Sportswear. (I am also an active member of this alumni association and part of the seminar organization committee).

We had invited some of the well-known industry experts, established domestic sportswear brand owners and decision makers for the panel discussion on the above topic. It was an interesting panel discussion on sportswear business focussing on the major challenges of running an activewear brand and manufacturing business.

In this post, I have shared the video one of the panel discussions. The first panel discussion was - Activewear and Athleisure: The Manufacturing challenges. Watch the full panel discussion in this video.
