African Cotton & Textile Industries Federation (ACTIF)
ACTIF is a regional trade body formed in June 2005 by the cotton, textile and apparel sectors from across sub-Saharan Africa to create a unified and recognized voice in both regional and global trade affairs.
Individual countries recognized the fact that they could no longer act in isolation or remain fragmented in the face of current and future challenges to the cotton and textile industry, hence the need for regional integration that would in turn lead to market discovery, increased business linkages, trade and investment.
ACTIF’s mandate is to bring the disparate needs of the cotton, textile and apparel sectors into cohesive and consensus driven positions at regional and international trade and development forums.
