Mount Holly, North Carolina-based thread and textiles manufacturer American & Efird opened A&E/Gütermann India’s new technical sewing center at an inauguration ceremony in Bawal, India, in October 2024. A&E President Chris Alt presided over the ribbon-cutting to introduce the technical education sewing center.
According to a news release, the technical sewing center is a creative hub that provides a workspace for brands and cut-and-sew customers to evaluate new developments. Staffed by a team with years of technical expertise, the new center is equipped with a traditional training center setup and features an extensive range of sewing machines.
