Palpali Dhaka Association submits a proposal for branding “Dhaka Topi”
Palapali Dhaka Association submitted a proposal to Department of Commerce for branding “Dhaka Topi”.
For a long time, Nepal has imported dhaka fabric used for manufacturing the hat as well the finished product itself. Dhaka topi, being the national hat of Nepal, is subject to questions of authenticity when it is being imported from other countries.
This initiative by Palpali Dhaka Association is a pivotal step in preserving the authenticity of a hat which has significant traditional, cultural and historical value in Nepal. Moreover, it is only sensible that a product with such a significance, exclusively to the Nepalese, should be manufactured and branded in the country itself.
