Why Rubber Park

Due to Globalisation the Competition is

becoming stiff and being a small unit and

standing alone will pose major problems

Coming under one roof will create moreopportunities and provide more strength to

face the competition

Collective bargaining and collectivemarketing will be an added advantage

Common Infrastructures could be developed

1. Common Purchase and establishing a Raw

Material Bank

What we Expect from the District

Administration?

100 Acres of Land preferably at a nominal price

Speedy clearance of all formalities like, Land Use

Classification, Building Approvals, Running

Licenses, Common Infrastructures like Roads,Drainage, Street Lighting and Transport facilities

In case the District Administration is not able to

provide Land, atleast extend a helping hand in

buying private lands and help to reclassify the Landuse

Provision of Water is also essential

Stake Holders

50 + Industrialists have come forward to putup units in the proposed park

MADITSSIA is playing the Lead Role in

coordinating all ITCOT is preparing the feasibility Report

DIC is to Escort

Central Government Agencies to fund theproject

District Collector as God Father

Conclusion

We assure both the Governments to make Madurai

District as an Industrial District and provide more

employment opportunities which is the only solution

to improve the Economy of Southern Districts

We anticipate a Helping Hand from all Government

Agencies involved in Cluster Development
