Indian Fair: Pakistani items end up being popular

Traditional cotton textile with embroidery, aromatic spices or herbs and crafts emerged as huge hits for Pakistani traders in the annual India Worldwide Trade Fair (IITF).
“I have been getting good response from clients, whose amounts continue growing even on working days,” Sayyada Dhanji, partner in textile firm Mars Hoor Gallery, told .
The Karachi-based businesswoman, that has been visiting India since 1998, stated cultural commonalities between people of both nations, particularly in clothing, attract Indian clients.
“This isn’t a unique trend and happens always with Pakistani goods, particularly textiles, spices or herbs, crafts and leather items. I’m expecting a sell-out throughout the weekend.”
Dhanji expected her business to improve in India. “I have always dreamed of the day after i sell my items at competitive rates and today with MFN (most-preferred nation) status, I don’t need to watch for IITF each year. I’m prepared to sell throughout every season in India.” Pakistan having a presence of 70 traders in the fair is among the greatest foreign contingents with presence from textile firms including Laila Art, Rohhirung & Nadia’s and handicraft maker Warsi Impex, that have been visiting India for more than ten years.
