According to official statistics, apparel exports to major markets such as the USA, Germany, and Canada have experienced negative growth during the January-March period of 2023.

However, exports to the European Union (EU) increased by 3.69% in dollar values, with declines in Germany but growth in France and Spain.

Exports to other countries in the EU, such as Poland, Austria, Slovenia, Latvia, and Lithuania, declined year-over-year. Apparel exports to the USA also declined by about 16% year-over-year, while exports to the UK grew by 14.04% and exports to Canada declined by 2.36% during the same period.

On the positive side, apparel exports to non-traditional markets showed a significant rise of 39.25% growth, with exports to Japan, India, Australia, Turkey, Brazil, and South Korea showing year-on-year growth.

The BGMEA is actively working to explore new markets and implement policy reforms to simplify business processes and sustain long-term growth.
