The world’s second-largest manufacturer of infant wear will make an investment of Rs 1,600 crore to develop the project.
The project is expected to be completed in 2023. The Telangana IT and Industries Minister KT Rama Rao and Rural Development Minister E Dayakar Rao laid the foundation stone for the project.
The Kitex cluster will be spread over 200 acre. The cluster can manufacture seven lakh pieces of garments a day and employ about 15,000 people.
The first unit of the project is expected to be operational by the end of 2022.
