Selection of Clusters:-

The selection of clusters is based on their geographical concentration which should be around 500 beneficiary families of artisans/micro enterprises, suppliers of raw materials, traders, service providers, etc., located within one or two revenue sub-divisions in a District (or in contiguous Districts).


The clusters have to be from khadi, coir and village industries, including leather and pottery. The potential for growth in production and generation of employment opportunities is also considered in selecting clusters under SFURTI.


The geographical distribution of the clusters throughout the country, with at least 10 per cent located in the North Eastern region, is also be kept in view while selecting clusters.
