Compagnie malienne pour le développement du textile

The Compagnie malienne pour le développement des textiles (CMDT), created in 1974, is a Malian cotton company.

The company is owned by the Malian state and is charged with the production and marketing of Mali's cotton.

The Forum des peuples, which had a meeting in Fana in July 2005, also launched a petition demanding the abandonment of the privatization plan.

As of early 2017, the company remained largely in government hands, with the Malian state owning 61% of its assets.
