This Sunday, the Concordia Convention Center was the venue for the First Textile Industry Meeting 2025, an initiative organized by the Undersecretariat of Development and Entrepreneurship of the Municipality of Concordia together with the Cooperativa Textil Concordia Ltda., with the aim of creating a space for visibility, articulation, and strengthening of the local textile sector.
The day included open talks, textile product exhibitions, cultural activities, institutional stands, exchange rounds with entrepreneurs, and a fashion show featuring local productions, showcasing the talent, innovation, and identity that characterize the textile work of Concordia.
Vice Mayor Magdalena Reta de Urquiza celebrated the holding of the meeting and reaffirmed the administration's commitment to articulated work with the private sector through the generation of different tools, whether for training, strengthening, or the exchange of experiences.
“This first meeting is a reflection of a public policy that seeks to build with others, from the bottom up and with a future perspective. The textile industry not only has a history in Concordia, but also enormous potential to generate employment, development, and productive identity,” highlighted Gabriel Enguelberg, Undersecretary of Development and Entrepreneurship.
Andrés Aguilar, president of the Cooperativa Textil, stated: “This meeting is a recognition of the daily effort of hundreds of workers in the textile sector. We are convinced that, with the support of the State and networking, we can build a stronger, more inclusive, and sustainable industry.”
During the event, recognitions were presented to outstanding textile workers of the city, and tribute was paid to those who, over time, left an indelible mark, leaving behind a legacy of commitment to the local industry.
The Municipality of Concordia ratified its commitment to continue promoting spaces for dialogue, training, and visibility that strengthen the local economy, recognizing the key role that the textile industry plays in job creation, creativity, and social inclusion.
Accompanying the event were Provincial Deputy Dr. Marcelo López; the Head of the Social Economy Department, Miguel Parra; Andrea Popelka, member of the Undersecretariat of Development and Entrepreneurship, among others.
