The Yamuna Expressway Industrial Development Authority (YEIDA) has stepped up land acquisition for its Apparel Park project in Sector 29, expediting the purchase of the remaining 94 acres to address land shortages and keep the project on schedule.

Designed to boost industrial growth and generate over 3 lakh jobs, the Apparel Park is attracting strong investor interest—particularly from export-oriented textile firms—thanks to its strategic location near the upcoming Noida International Airport at Jewar, according to a report by millenniumpost.in.

YEIDA chief executive officer (CEO) R K Singh said the authority is committed to completing the project within the stipulated time frame to promote business growth and create large-scale employment opportunities, particularly for the youth.

“We have expedited the purchase of the remaining land so that the Apparel Park becomes operational as per schedule,” Singh said.

Of the total 175 acres earmarked for the Apparel Park, 81 acres have already been allotted to investors. So far, 65 lease deeds have been executed, 61 allottees have completed registry formalities, and 43 have taken possession of their plots. Building plans for 16 units have been approved, and construction work is underway at seven sites.

Officials said the latest land procurement will help the authority deliver all pending projects and enable faster development of basic infrastructure in the sector. Once the remaining land is acquired, YEIDA also plans to launch a fresh plot allotment scheme for textile and garment industries.

The project has drawn significant investor interest, especially from export-oriented apparel firms, owing to its proximity to the upcoming Noida International Airport at Jewar, which will offer improved logistics and connectivity.

Designed as a self-contained ecosystem, the Apparel Park is expected to generate over 3 lakh jobs—70 per cent of them for women—and integrate manufacturing, packaging, testing, and export facilities. The project is also set to strengthen Gautam Budh Nagar’s status as a major garment manufacturing hub.
