A delegation from Andhra Pradesh government led by S. Savitha, Minister of Handlooms & Textiles, visited Kitex Group Garments’ headquarters at Kizhakkambalam near here on Saturday (June 7, 2025).
Ms. Savitha, in a press meet soon after the visit, invited the Kitex Group to invest in Andhra Pradesh and lead the textile sector’s expansion in the State. Sabu M. Jacob, chairman and managing director of Kitex Garments, received the delegation.
I have come as per the instruction of the Chief Minister of Andhra Pradesh, Chandrababu Naidu. Andhra Pradesh offers robust textile infrastructure with dedicated parks, integrated apparel clusters, abundant land and labour, cotton availability, and excellent port and road connectivity. Through its current expansion in Telangana, Kitex is becoming the number one player in the apparel segment. That is why I am here to invite Kitex to invest in Andhra Pradesh and lead the textile sector’s expansion in the state, she said.
“Andhra Pradesh is ushering in several forward-looking developments in the textile sector. To be part of this growth story, we are inviting globally acclaimed companies with a proven track record—like Kitex—to invest in the state. Our vision is to create large-scale employment and build Andhra Pradesh into a global textile hub. We will update on further developments after a direct meeting with the Chief Minister,” Ms. Savitha said.
