This is a repair and upkeep service for the industrial sewing machines that garment factories run all day. You fix lockstitch, overlock and flatlock machines, set up special machines such as buttonhole and bartack (stitch-strengthening) units, fit power-saving servo motors and sell yearly upkeep contracts. Buying, fixing and reselling used machines gives you a second income.
Gurgaon has a large garment export cluster around Udyog Vihar and IMT Manesar, and textiles and apparel are the district's chosen 'one district, one product' (ODOP). NABARD's 2023-24 credit plan for Gurugram lists readymade garments among the district's industry clusters. When one machine stops during a rush export order, the whole line slows, so factories value a mechanic who arrives quickly with the right part.
You need hands-on training in machine repair, a tool kit, a stock of common spares, a two-wheeler and a small workshop near an industrial estate. The hard part is that bigger factories keep their own mechanics, so you win on speed, on special machines and on spares they do not stock. Work at export units rises and falls with foreign buying seasons, and small units can pay late.
Visit production managers in the industrial estates, tie up with machine dealers who do not offer service, and look after smaller tailoring and sampling units in between.
