Pakistan'S Domestic Clothing Demand Improves, Exporters Turn To Local Market

Data from the Pakistan Bureau of statistics show that in the past 10 years, Pakistan has

Demand increased by 81%, despite higher prices for clothing.

The rise in demand may attract changes in consumer behavior: urban population has higher disposable income, growth and development of a shopping culture, like buying clothes in retail stores, rather than tailoring to tailor shops.

So far, tailoring is still the mainstream of Pakistan's clothing sector. In urban areas, tailors are facing difficult times.

About 85% of consumers turn to ready-made clothes.

。

Tailors usually find that their workrooms are cut off, which is bad for them because it prevents them from delivering orders in time.

The biggest advantage of tailoring garments is to get better fit. In this respect, almost all retail garments sold by retail stores are ignored.

Many tailors are facing a decline in consumer groups.

In addition, domestic ready-made garments

The rise is attracting the attention of textile exporters.

In 2006-2010 viscose, the local sales revenue of clothing manufacturers rising in the Karachi stock market rose at an average of 29% per year, and their export sales were faster, during which their export sales grew at a rate of 22% per year.

Part of the motivation for exporters to leave the export market is the energy crisis. The energy crisis makes it difficult for them to meet the final delivery deadline set by international retailers. International retailers usually use the no stock business mode to minimize their inventory costs.

The lack of electricity has made it difficult for manufacturers in Pakistan to maintain continuous operations and fail to achieve timely delivery, which is very easy for them to lose orders from foreign retailers.
