Israeli based OptiTex, a leading international provider of software for the fashion and textile industry, recently announced that it has been chosen to take a major part in a comprehensive project designated towards the computerization of Colombia’s largest National Training Organization.

The project was put together by a leading Israeli technology company that specializes in technological training systems and e-learning solutions and where OptiTex was selected as one of the suppliers and integrators and within this framework, provided the training institution with design systems to train and professionally integrate employees into the fashion and textile sector. Implementation of the software has already began and is expected to last for few months while the software is installed in various locations around the country.

OptiTex CEO, Ran Machtinger mentioned that the company has vast experience in integrating into professional training programs in Israel and abroad, and that OptiTex software is installed in most of the fashion and apparel training institutions in Israel. This translates into low cost software at hundreds of work-stations, an example of which is the WIZO College of Design in Haifa, one of Israel’s professional training institutions that has been using OptiTex software for many years and is currently upgrading its OptiTex stations to incorporate the most updated versions. According to Machtinger, participating in the project will enable OptiTex to drastically expand its presence in Latin America. 

It should further be mentioned that over the past year, a large number of universities and colleges around the globe (China, Brazil, USA, Switzerland, Poland and more) have equipped themselves with various OptiTex programs, emphasizing the fact that the market share and use of OptiTex programs is strengthened as these people complete their training and enter the market.
