One District, One Product Scheme

About the Programme

  • In India, Uttar Pradesh is one of the major exporters of handicrafts, carpet, processed food, engineering goods, readymade garments and leather products.
  • These kinds of products are manufactured by local Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) in the state and possess immense potential for generating employment.
  • In an attempt to encourage indigenous and specialized products in the state, the Uttar Pradesh government has launched the One District One Product (ODOP) programme which aims to create product-specific traditional industrial hubs across 75 districts of the state.

Objectives of the scheme

  • Increase incomes and local employment which will in turn result in decline in migration for employment.
  • Preserve and develop local crafts and promote traditional art.
  • Transform local products in an artistic way through packaging, branding.
  • Improve product quality and develop local skills.
  • Connect production with tourism through live demos and sales outlets for gifts and souvenirs.
  • Take the idea of ODOP programme to national and international levels after successfully implementing it at the state level
  • Resolve issues of economic difference and regional imbalance.

 

This scheme will focus on promoting local manufacturing by giving a much-needed support to Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs).
