Belgaum, Sept 3 (KNN) Despite a sharp depreciation in rupee, flower exporters can improve their earning provided the right policies are adopted and support is forthcoming from the government, a leading woman entrepreneur has said.
“We will earn more money in dollars if flower exports start picking up,” said owner of Karnataka based Florist Flower Crafts Kuteera Herbal Products, Priya Puranik.
Generally, at this time when many industries are agonizing over the fall in rupee, the same reason is cause for cheer for the exporters. That's because a cheaper rupee gets them higher profit margins and increased business for most exporters.
But, speaking about the on-going crisis in the overall economy, Puranik, who is also a member of the Association of Women Entrepreneurs of Karnataka (AWAKE), said that confidence level of investors has worsened.
“To gain the confidence we have to look into the ways that help exports. With regard to flower exports we still need workforce which is lacking and the government should help,” she added.
She also suggested that more money should be invested in flower farming to generate more employment opportunities.
