This report provides vital data and analysis of trends in national, regional and world clothing imports and consumer expenditure on clothing and footwear. The report focuses in particular on clothing imports, consumer expenditure and trends in five key emerging markets, namely Egypt, Indonesia, Malaysia, the Philippines and Romania. According to the latest global data, world clothing imports fell in 2016 for the second year in succession. As a result, imports were at their lowest level since 2012. Nevertheless, there was strong growth in imports into several markets during the year, including Algeria, Armenia, Azerbaijan, Bangladesh, Croatia, the Czech Republic, Hungary, India, Israel, Jordan, Morocco, Poland and Thailand. In 2017 consumer expenditure on clothing and footwear is estimated to have risen in most of the major economies.

This is what our customers say: "In our work, we were looking for industry insights and trends - who the major suppliers were, which countries were producing and what, productivity rates, investment incentives, where investors were moving to and why, etc. A lot of the individual country case studies you did were great - I remember one recently on the UK for example. There was also a great article from a guy on the Turkish market and recent trends there. Both these articles were written for the layman so they were easy to understand but comprehensive at the same time. The technology articles were also interesting. Basically, it was an all-round good publication that covered everything in enough depth so that you would always find something of interest in each issue." (Alan J.
