Christian Schindler, director general of ITMF, stated, “Welcoming Violar as a corporate member is an important step to further strengthen the representation of the cotton fibre industry within ITMF. The strength of ITMF is to involve all segments of the textile value chain from producers of fibres to those of finished products like apparel and home textiles and everything in between including textile machinery producers. Additional expertise from the cotton industry is most welcome in ITMF. We are convinced that this step will be mutually beneficial.”
Markou Vasileios, president of Violar S.A., said, “The decision of joining ITMF is built on the belief of expanding our partnerships and our synergies throughout the whole textile chain. We look forward to contributing and to receive insights as future evolution is a challenge and can only be addressed through interaction.”
