The Rajarambapu group of textile industries is a living example of creating advantages where none exist. The very inception of this textile venture is based on the consideration of this labour intensive industry as unique opportunity to generate employment for the masses. Over 500 erstwhile housewives of otherwise economically weaker sections now working in these units is a manifestation of having a created such opportunities.Spread over 70 acres of land, this seemingly innocuous cluster is engaged in activities encompassing ‘everything in textiles’... right from yarn to garments! Having established in 1986, the group created its maiden landmark in 1993 with its exports leaving the Indian shores. Such benchmarks in the course in the course of time have become a motivation for other small scale units that have been coming up in the region.
Mr. Jayant Patil, who wholeheartedly spearheaded the growth, aimed at creating the group’s own markets; both domestically and globally. With the inception of introducing value addition in textile products through vertical integration viz. yarn dyeing, knitting, weaving, knits and woven processing and readymade garmenting, huge avenues were created at par to address the global competition in the market.
These situations have been the real source that galvanised Mr. Jayant Patil and Mr. Dilip Patil to ensure that, only the most ultra modern machinery setup and infrastructure was to be installed to create a comprehensive & world class approach of ‘yarn to garments’ making this the only one of its kind across nation. |
