HANDLOOMS SECTOR:
In order to provide wider market for handloom weavers/artisans/producers, steps have been taken to on-board weavers/artisans on Government e-Market place (GeM) to enable them to sell their products directly to various Government Departments and organizations. So far 1.75 weavers and Artisans have been onboarded on the GeM Web portal.
A social media campaign #Vocal 4 handmade was launched on the 6th National Handloom Day, 7th August 2020 by the Government, in partnership with all stakeholders, to promote the handloom legacy of India and to ensure people’s support for the weaving community. The social media campaign has resulted in renewed interest of the Indian public in handlooms and several e-commerce players have reported increase in sale of Indian handloom products.
To overcome constraints brought about by Covid-19 pandemic, Handloom Export Promotion Council organised THE INDIAN TEXTILE SOURCING FAIR on 7, 10 and 11th August 2020 with more than 200 participants from different regions of the country showcasing their products with unique designs and skills, wherein it virtually connectedthe Handloom Weavers and exporters from different corners of the country with the International Market.

So far 07 DRCs have been set up and made functional in the WSCs of Delhi, Varanasi, Ahmedabad, Guwahati, Bhubaneshwar, Mumbai & Jaipur
