Pakistan's annual textile and clothing exports in 2021

In Dec 2021, Pakistani textile and apparel export value totaled 1.623 billion USD, up 15.89% year-on-year but down 6.49% month-on-month. Natural gas prices have risen sharply recently, and natural gas accounted for a relatively large proportion of the domestic energy structure in Pakistan. As a result, the costs of Pakistan's textile mills soared, resulting in missed schedules. In Dec, the export decreased month-on-month but still increased year-on-year. Pakistan's export orders in 2021 were relatively large. Except for February, Pakistan's monthly exports increased year on year. Pakistan's annual textile and clothing exports in 2021 were 17.35 billion yuan, up 32.7% over the same period last year and 27.7% over 2019.
