Fresh impetus to long-delayed Export Centre in Mysuru

The long-delayed Mysuru Export Centre received a fresh impetus last week when the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of Karnataka Industrial Areas Development Board (KIADB) Mahesh visited the location in Hebbal Industrial area and directed the officials to call for short-term tender and complete the pending works.

Mr. Mahesh’s visit on September 2 came after a delegation of Mysuru Industries Association (MIA) called on him at the KIADB office in Mysuru to draw his attention to various issues including the much-delayed Export Centre for Mysuru.

Though the foundation for the Centre was laid in 2014 and work began in 2019, it was abandoned by the contractor mid-way, pouring cold water on the hopes of the local industries looking forward to give a boost to exports of products like handicrafts, incense sticks, automobile components, electronic goods etc.
