47% has been completed, and the remaining targets will be completed soon.

In addition, during the rest of this year, the clothing industry is expected to continue to grow, and orders for many domestic garment exporters are increasing, probably by the end of the year.

Last year, prices soared by about 10%.

In order to gradually reduce dependence on imports, the clothing industry intends to increase the use ratio of domestic products.

In the first 5 months of this year, Vietnam has imported about 3 billion 700 million dollars for its clothing and footwear production sector, according to the General Administration of statistics.
