Based in Mumbai, Ptex Solutions focuses on providing software and consulting services to Apparel and Footwear companies in India, US, Europe, Middle East, Far East and New Zealand.In 2004, Ptex Solutions partnered with Infor (earlier known as Freeborders) to introduce leading Product Lifecycle Management solutions to emerging Indian retail industry.
