Tirupur, the knitwear capital of India, has registered a remarkable 12% export growth in Q1 2026. The resurgence of orders from European and North American retail brands has given manufacturers a solid order book.
Local exporters attribute this expansion to compliance audits, sustainable product sourcing, and investments in automated sewing technology. The local Tirupur Exporters Association (TEA) stated that the focus on high-value eco-friendly activewear and organic cotton jerseys has opened up new market channels in Scandinavian countries.
