Surat – Situated in the bustling Ring Road area of Salabatpura, Shri Shyam Textile Market has maintained its distinguished position in Surat’s textile trade since its establishment in 1996. The market comprises 456 fully operational shops, all actively catering to a wide range of customers.
Known especially for its extensive collection of ready-made and semi-stitched dress materials, ladies’ suits, lehengas, and traditional garments, the market serves both retail and semi-wholesale buyers. Its unique appeal lies in its specialization in ethnic and traditional fabrics, which remain in strong demand among offline customers despite the growth of online retail.
Lalit Jain, President of Shri Shyam Textile Market and Director at FOSTTA, shared that a dedicated management committee oversees the efficient functioning of the market. The committee includes General Secretary Mukesh Bagadia, Treasurer Dinesh Agrawal, and advisors Shyam Sundar Chaudhary and Pramod Agrawal.
To ensure a safe and smooth business environment, the market has installed a robust security system, including CCTV surveillance and modern fire safety equipment across all shops.
As per Jain, the rise of online platforms has had minimal impact on their trade. He emphasized that the demand for traditional fabric remains strong among in-person buyers, allowing Shri Shyam Textile Market to retain its relevance and vibrancy in Surat’s renowned textile ecosystem.
