MoUs were signed with Jiangsu Kingday Textile Co Limited, Zhejiang Hengyuan Chemical Fiber Group, Kunshan Rising Textile and Garment Co Limited as well as Sumec Textile and Light Industry Co Limited on Friday during Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister N Chandrababu Naidu’s visit to China to garner investments for the state.
Spread over 1,000 acre, BIAC has 10 manufacturing units. It also has an effluent treatment plant with a capacity of treating 56 million litres of effluent discharge, which is then piped 9 km and discharged offshore, according to details available on its website.
