One District One Product (ODOP)

The One District One Product (ODOP) Programme was envisioned and subsequently inaugurated on January 24, 2018 by the Hon’ble Chief Minister of UP – Shri Yogi Adityanath on the day of Uttar Pradesh Divas. This project by Government of Uttar Pradesh (GoUP) aims to encourage more visibility and sale of indigenous and specialized products/crafts of Uttar Pradesh, generating employment at district level. In this project, one particular product is selected from every district of Uttar Pradesh. The selected product under ODOP is traditionally famous for their production and manufacturing from that particular district (e.g Lucknow is famous for zari-zardozi and chikankari). Many of these products are GI-tagged, which means they are certified as being specific to that region in Uttar Pradesh. The manufacturing process of a lot of these products are also dying community traditions that are being revived through modernization and publicization.
Under the ODOP project, artisans, production units and associations which are related to the selected products are promoted by lending loan, establishing Common Facility Centers, providing marketing assistance so these products can be popularized and employment can be generated at district level.
Under OPOP the Following Program is running by UP Government:
• Common Facility Centre Scheme

• Provide employment to youth and promote the competitive ecosystem in the state
