The Head of State noted that in the Epoch of the Revival of the New Era of the Powerful State, the textile industry of the Fatherland has become one of the key sectors of the national economy owing to its high growth rates. Over recent years, including the past year, large-scale work has been carried out in this direction. The production capacities of textile enterprises have grown steadily, advanced innovative technologies have been widely introduced into the sector, and the range of export-oriented products of the highest quality meeting international standards has been significantly expanded.

At the same time, as the President of Turkmenistan Serdar Berdimuhamedov emphasized, textile enterprises are placing primary importance on the introduction of digital systems and automated management technologies, which opens broad avenues for increasing production efficiency, careful use of resources, ensuring product quality in accordance with international requirements, and implementing full digital control of production. The use of modern equipment, high-performance technologies, and digital solutions at plants and factories gives a powerful impetus to increasing labor productivity, creating new jobs, and driving innovative growth of the national economy.

Arkadagly Hero-Serdar drew attention to the fact that Turkmenistan&#39;s environmentally friendly textile products have gained recognition on international markets owing to their high quality, production from natural raw materials, and competitiveness.

&laquo;Today, Turkmen textiles are successfully exported to dozens of countries around the world, which is a clear testament to the further strengthening of the economic potential of our native Fatherland and the expansion of international economic cooperation.

The international exhibition-fair, held at the modern building of the Chamber of Commerce and Industry of Turkmenistan, provides an opportunity to become acquainted with the achievements of the domestic textile industry, to expand mutually beneficial ties with foreign partners, to bring new investment projects to life, and to exchange innovative experience&raquo;, wrote the President of Turkmenistan Serdar Berdimuhamedov in his Letter, expressing confidence that the successful holding of the international exhibition-fair &laquo;Turkmentextile Expo &mdash; 2026&raquo; will make a substantial contribution to the further development of the domestic textile industry and the strengthening of international cooperation.

The Head of State noted with pride that the successes achieved in the year of &laquo;Independent permanently Neutral Turkmenistan &mdash; the homeland of purposeful winged horses&raquo; are a vivid result of the economic strength of the Fatherland, the creative labor of the people, and the positive development strategy of the state. The high achievements of the textile sector are also yet another testament to the strengthening of the country&#39;s industrial power.

In conclusion of the Letter, the President of Turkmenistan Serdar Berdimuhamedov once again wholeheartedly congratulated the participants of the international exhibition-fair &laquo;Turkmentextile Expo &mdash; 2026&raquo; on the opening of such a significant international event!
