Pakistan’s first business portal for the textile and leather industry is to be launched in March. The concept, designed by the United Nations Industrial Development Organization (UNIDO), will initially focus on the textile and leather industries and provide business-to-business trade over the internet where queries and offers will be posted in search of buyers and suppliers. Pakistani businesses will also bear e-shops on IIN available for viewing by buyers. The project was initiated in March 2004 with a government three-year fund of PRs 40 million ($674,000).
