WHY TEXTILE industry

The European textile market is witnessing unprecedented changes, and we have identified a rare opening for strategic investments.

Over the past three years, the global textile market has experienced remarkable transformations in cotton yarn supply chains, primarily driven by geopolitical dynamics and internal issues in specific regions.

Due to the trade policy of the USA and internal issues in the Uyghur region, China, the undisputed leader in the supply of cotton yarns over the past 10 years, has reduced the size of world exports from 500 to 170 million kg over the past 3 years, of which only 6 million kg fall to Europe. The resulting demand vacuum was filled by Asian supplies, whose cotton yarn exports amount to about 270 million kg. annually.

1 JUNE 2023 THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT PASSED

THE CORPORATE SUSTAINABILITY DUE DILIGENCE DIRECTIVE (СSDDD).

Under this directive, all sectors of the economy, particularly the textile industry, will be held accountable for human rights violations and environmental damage within their global supply chains.

The low cost of production, which has provided Asian suppliers with a leading position, no longer allows them to produce goods of the required quality according to the CSDDD.

THIS MEANS THAT THE SHARE OF ASIAN YARN EXPORTS THAT WILL NEED TO BE REPLACED BY HIGHER QUALITY COUNTERPARTS FROM EUROPEAN SUPPLIERS IS ABOUT 272 MILLION KG OF YARN.

GREECE UNIQUE OPPORTUNITIES

Greece is home to a remarkable 90%of European cotton cultivation, ensuring a local and abundant supply of raw materials for the textile industry.

Greece has a rich history of sustainable and ethical practices in cotton production and processing. This commitment to environmental responsibility and social ethics aligns perfectly with the requirements set forth by the Corporate Sustainability Due Diligence Directive (CSDDD).

Greece has successfully cultivated its brand "Supreme Green Cotton," renowned for meeting and surpassing all European quality standards. This branding excellence offers a significant advantage in the market.

Greece hosts a significant number of yarn manufacturers that have struggled to compete with Asian suppliers and are now in a distressed state (currently studying six factories with relatively new equipment and established production cycles). Their assets may be acquired at distressed prices, around 1/5 to 1/6 of their real value.

Such acquisitions could enable the production of over 30 million kg of cotton yarn annually, replacing up to 15% of Asian imports. Considering the prices of European alternatives, this could generate a turnover of over 200 million USD per year.
