History/Background

Textile Processing Sector has been operative virtually since the very inception of Pakistan in 1947. With the sudden upsurge of Textile industry in Pakistan during the fifth and sixth decades when quite a few Textile Spinning and Composite Units started picking up roots and Power Loom Units sprang up like mushroom in Pakistan in the unorganized sector, in every nook and corner, whose number rose to about 0.3 million plus. As out of necessity, a proportionate number of Processing Units was required for dyeing, bleaching, printing, sunforising, finishing, packing and packaging of the raw-fabric which was being mass-produced by the unorganized Power Loom Sector. And this was the occasion when the entrepreneurs and pioneers of the Processing Sector rose to the occasion and, remarkably enough, came out with flying colours. Despite their meager resources, they succeeded not only in making the country self-sufficient in dress and apparel, but also in providing quality fabrics to the International Export Market while their quality was second to none.

The Textile Processing is one of the most value-added and export-oriented sector of Textile Industries in Pakistan. All Pakistan Textile Processing Mills Association (APTPMA) was formally affiliated with the Federation of Pakistan Chambers of Commerce & Industry (FPCCI). APTPMA with its Head Office in Faisalabad was registered with Ministry of Commerce on 5th July, 1990 under Trade organization Ordinance. 1961, and started functioning from July 1991. All unregistered organization established for similar purpose merged themselves into one Association and then the organization opened three regional / Zonal Offices namely Faisalabad, Karachi, Lahore/Gujranwala. The total number of its registered Member Units as on 20th September 2000, is 394.
