Local Georgian enterprise Delta Textile, which provides the country’s defence forces with locally produced winter and summer field and daily work uniforms, is marking one year since its establishment on September 15.
On this occasion, Georgian Prime Minister Irakli Garibashvili visited Delta Textile earlier today and stated that it ‘is a very successful project which serves our praiseworthy army.’
There are about 450 employees in this factory (Delta Textile), who create these very high-quality products for our army,” Garibashvili said.
PM Garibashvili also noted that the country makes about 20-30 per cent of savings due to the development of local production and faces no issues regarding the quality and delivery time of the military outfits and equipment. Photo: Government of Georgia press office.
As you know, there was a problem of quality and supply in general over the years and this problem has been completely eliminated,” said Garibashvili.
Delta Textile is equipped with Italian and Japanese sewing machines. The enterprise along with the Georgian troop’s uniforms produces combat equipment, raincoats, wind jackets, hats, gloves, backpacks/bags, linen and sportswear.
The state-owned Delta Textile purchased a 49 per cent share of a large Georgian textile company Geomtex which has been operating on the European market for about a year for the development of the project.
Delta Textile production operates on the base of the country’s largest textile factory which was founded in 2015.
