43 pages, published in Issue 44, January 2020   Report price: Euro 635.00; US$ 835.00

This report contains vital data and analysis of trends in exports from the world's leading clothing exporting countries. In particular, it provides a review of world trade, and focuses in detail on the ten leading clothing exporters and their key markets. Eight of the world's leading clothing exporters achieved growth in 2018, including Cambodia, Vietnam and Bangladesh. China remained the largest exporter, followed by the EU, Bangladesh, Vietnam, India, Turkey, Hong Kong, Indonesia, Cambodia and the USA. In terms of destination, strong growth was seen in clothing exports to a number of countries, including China, Japan, the Netherlands, Poland, South Korea and Switzerland. Looking ahead, growth in world clothing exports is set to pick up in 2020 after a sluggish 2019. Also, consumer expenditure is expected to rise in 2020 following a minimal increase in 2019, and between 2020 and 2023 it is set to pick up further. However, the rise in 2020and in subsequent yearswill be dependent to a certain extent on a return to more normal trading conditions, and could be negatively affected by a number of factors exacerbated by the US-China trade war and Brexit-related uncertainty in the EU.
