👏 Congratulations to all teams for making this event such a success! Beyond the trophies, it was a celebration of unity, networking, and the vibrant diversity of our export community.

We are excited to announce that the 3rd edition of “Open Days in Our Export Manufacturing Companies” officially started today! 🎉

This initiative aims to inspire and educate secondary school students by giving them a rare opportunity to explore the world of export manufacturing first-hand.

Over the years, the “Open Days” have been a tremendous success, enabling young minds to:

✅ Gain insight into how our industry operates
✅ Discover rewarding career opportunities
✅ Appreciate the vital role export manufacturing plays in our economy

🚀 This year’s journey kicked off at CDL Knits (CIEL Group) in Forest Side, with Grade 12 students from College De La Confiance.

The visit offered an in-depth look at the entire production chain of a textile company — from raw materials to finished t-shirts — and allowed students to witness the skill, precision, and innovation driving our sector.
