The India Trade Promotion Organisation (ITPO) will be organizing an exclusive multi product India Show, the India Sourcing Fair at Colombo from December eight as Indo- Sri Lankan mutual trade has been growing steadily.

The main objective of the fair is to project strength of Indian companies to the Sri Lankan counterparts which are going in for massive sourcing of products and services from other countries. The fair will display products and showcase the activities of handlooms, textiles and handicrafts, micro, small and medium enterprises (MSME) and tourism departments.

Odisha would participate as a partner state in the five-day fair with three people from Boyanika, a state-owned leading exporter and manufacturer of handlooms, would also take part.

Official sources said that products like sarees, silver filigree and applique worth Rs 30 lakh to Rs 40 lakh would be on display at the venue, which will be an ideal networking platform for Indian companies. At the same time it will provide an opportunity for Sri Lankan industrialists and businesses to view the latest innovations, products and services offered by Indian companies.
