Islamabad: In a concerted effort to propel Pakistan’s export-led industrialization, Deputy Prime Minister and Foreign Minister Ishaq Dar convened a high-level meeting to accelerate the progress of establishing textile parks across the country. This initiative, directed by the Prime Minister, aims to stimulate economic growth and create job opportunities through strategic partnerships with both international and domestic investors.
According to a statement by Press Information Department, the meeting, held at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, included key representatives from various sectors. The Working Group for the Establishment of Textile Parks, formed in September 2024, features members from the Board of Investment, Ministry of Industries and Production, Ministry of Commerce, among others.
