IFCOMA President stressed on the need for opening of the land route for the benefit of the trade of both the countries. He expressed that this would give us price competitiveness & control over the inventory cost for the Pakistan Footwear Manufacturers. Goods are currently imported through other routes resulting to high cost of around 20% with loss of time & risk.
