A BRIEF INTRODUCTION ABOUT OGTC

Established in 2004, Okhla Garment & Textile Cluster (OGTC), a cluster centric approach, is the first of its kind with mission excellence as its motto. Though the members are not having physical proximity but are clear in their minds that success can only be achieved through collective thinking and cooperation. Like minded entrepreneurs got together and created OGTC to primarily strengthen each member by complementing each other, by identifying best practices, implementing intensive collective training and adopting out of the box approach and provide inputs as a think tank to the garment industry.

In our short period of history, we have taken yeoman strides to assist our members to keep pace in the competitive environment. The foremost ongoing initiative is introduction of Industry 4.0 smart solutions through Technology providers. In addition, our members have reduced an equivalent of nearly 2000 tons of Carbon Footprint with the ultimate aim of going carbon neutral; In addition, OGTC facilitated detailed energy audits of member factories; which has not only helped the users to identify the areas where they need to take corrective actions to conserve energy but also take preventive actions against fire accidents. Many members have participated in this drive. We are also playing a significant role towards women empowerment by providing gainful employment to over 50,000 women workforce.
