Gaah Exports, based in New Delhi, is a testament to WOOLTEXPRO’s impact. Specializing in digital print scarves, cashmere sweaters, and fur shawls, Gaah Exports successfully penetrated European markets, including Germany, France, and the UK. This expansion was facilitated by WOOLTEXPRO’s support in connecting the company with international buyers and providing insights into market trends. As a result, Gaah Exports experienced a substantial increase in export volume, with annual revenues growing from ₹2 crore to over ₹5 crore within three years.
