Minister for Handlooms and Textiles R. Gandhi said that measures have been initiated to modernise Co-optex outlets and improve its business. The Minister along with Principal Secretary Beela Rajesh inspected the Co-optex outlet here on Tuesday and interacted with the weavers. He said that the Co-optex Salem outlet was doing sales of ₹15 crore, but it has now reduced due to COVID-19 pandemic. Mr. Gandhi said that a team has been formed to modernise the outlets and to adopt new business techniques and designs. Plans were on to introduce export quality organic varieties, including ready-made garments for children, that could be sold online. The Minister said that apart from setting up textile parks at eight places, a mega textile park would be established on 1,000 acres in Dharmapuri at ₹ 10,000 crore.
