The state government has opened a third Made in Nagaland centre, offering a dedicated platform for local entrepreneurs to showcase and market their products.
Nagaland's government has inaugurated its third Made in Nagaland centre, extending the flagship programme that promotes locally manufactured goods. The new facility is located in an undisclosed part of the state and is expected to serve as a hub where small‑scale producers can display, test and sell their products to a wider audience.
The initiative, launched in 2022, aims to create a self‑sustaining ecosystem for artisans, food processors and tech innovators by providing shared infrastructure, branding support and market linkages. With the addition of the third centre, the programme now covers three strategic locations across Nagaland, enhancing accessibility for entrepreneurs in remote districts.
State officials indicated that the expanded network will help generate employment, increase export potential and strengthen the state's reputation for quality indigenous products. The centre will also host training sessions and networking events to equip entrepreneurs with business skills and connect them with buyers from across India.
Industry observers note that such platforms are crucial for integrating Nagaland's cottage industries into national supply chains, potentially attracting investment and tourism. The Made in Nagaland brand, already featured in several trade fairs, is poised to gain further visibility through the new centre's outreach activities.
