‘I would also like to express our profound gratitude to his Excellency Governor Abdullahi Umar Ganduje, for his commitment towards ensuring that Kano takes its former position of the best textile manufacturing state, and this allocation of land is a testimony to that,” said the chairman Alhaji Abubakar.
‘’The governor approved 22.5 hectares of land for us in line with the Federal Government drive to support the establishment of textile and garment industry.’’
‘’By the time the factory is established, over 10,000 employment will be created. Though presently we have more than 500 staff on our payroll.’’
The chairman further stated that there is a strong need for the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) to as a matter of national interest consider a review of some of its policies to enable business activities to run smoothly within the nation.
He added that, though the project is so huge with a lot of competition with other sectors that deals in textiles, his company is seriously committed to ensure that the project is completed and executed within the shortest period of time.
