Chirakkal
Weaver's co-operative P&S Society Ltd; No.F.1291, was established
in 1947 under the Madras Co-operative Societies Act. Following its
motto to promote handloom industry and to give job to the weaver
community, the society has achieved the status of largest production
and sales centre of Kerala in South India. The out standing products
of the society are familiar in the European countries from the last
two decades, by the increase in export even countries like Hong
Kong, UK And UAE has now started enjoying these products. The capability of the society to develop modern samples within 15 -20 days is really unique. Its tie up with other co-operative production centres to meet bulk orders has also proven to be an additional benefit. The credit for all these success goes to the people involved in the activities of the Society including the Board Of Directors elected from the weavers. As a mark of appreciation, the Government of India has approved it as a Handloom Development Centre. |
