Uttar Pradesh is taking sustained and concrete steps to establish itself as a major textile and apparel export hub in the country. In this direction, the apparel park being developed in the Yamuna Expressway Industrial Area is emerging as a milestone in the state’s industrial landscape. The project is not only attracting significant investment but is also generating large-scale employment opportunities for youth.
The Yamuna Expressway Industrial Development Authority is developing the apparel park over 175 acres of land. A total of 173 industrial plots of various sizes have been planned and are being allotted to units associated with the apparel and textile sector. As of January 22, 2026, 156 plots have been allotted under the apparel park scheme, while only 17 plots remain vacant as per officials. Lease deeds have been executed in favour of 106 units, and possession has been handed over to 89 investors. These figures clearly reflect growing investor confidence in the Yogi government’s ease of doing business initiatives.
Projects in the apparel park are now rapidly taking shape on the ground. Under the scheme, checklists have been issued to 118 units, while building plans of 39 units have been approved. Construction work has commenced in 15 units. The government has sought action plans from all allottees in accordance with the Detailed Project Report (DPR) to ensure timely implementation.
Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath’s vision is to position Uttar Pradesh strongly on the global export map through initiatives such as One District One Product (ODOP) and the state’s textile policy.
The apparel park is expected to generate thousands of direct and indirect jobs, boost exports of ready-made garments and textiles, and provide a new platform for MSMEs and startups. Under the apparel park scheme, 17 plots covering 33.5 acres are still pending allotment. Due to partial land unavailability, land acquisition proceedings are underway, and instructions have been issued to complete the process at the earliest.
With the Yamuna Expressway, the upcoming international airport, improved connectivity and industry-friendly policies, Uttar Pradesh is fast emerging as a preferred destination for investors. The apparel park stands as a strong example of the Yogi government’s development-oriented vision focused on employment generation and export growth.
