Recommendations For Both Companies
ganizations big or small profit or unprofitable have problems and there are
always chances of improvements. This is also the condition for Interloop and
Klash textile.
There are certain departments of processing in which employees have been
working since long but there efficiency is not improved and unsatisfactory
results come out sometimes.
Interloop and Klash Textiles and other Textile industrialists believe that they
have been expected to compete in free global trade without any support which
would be impossible had the similar conditions prevailed in the regional
competing countries as well.
