TEXTILE INDUSTRY  MUSTAQIM (PVT LMT) INDUSTRY(dyeing and printing)

TEXTILE INDUSTRY

The Textile industry is a term used for industries primarily concerned with the design or manufacture of clothing as well as the distribution and use of textiles. As a major cotton and cotton textile producer, Pakistan looks to build on its strengths and adapt to new challenges. In past cloth was produced in the home, and the excess woven cloth was sold to merchants called clothiers who visited the village with their trains of pack-horses. Some of the cloth was made into clothes for people living in the same area and a large amount of cloth was exported.  The textile and apparel industry is often considered the backbone of the Islamic Republic of Pakistan’s economy-cotton textiles and apparel historically were the focus of the industry, mainly because of the large amount of cotton grown in the country. In fact, Pakistan currently ranks fourth among world cotton producers and third among world cotton consumers.

The process of making cloth depends slightly on the fiber being used, but there are three main steps: preparation of fibers for spinning, spinning, and weaving or knitting. The preparation of the fibers differs the most depending on the fiber used. Flax requires retting and dressing, while wool requires carding and washing. The spinning and weaving processes are very similar between fibers though.

The textile industry is one of the most important sectors of Pakistan. It contributes significantly to the country's GDP, exports as well as employment. It is, in fact, the backbone of the Pakistani economy.

Conclusion WITH RESPECT TO INDUSTRY:

Textile industry is a traditional pillar industry for China's economy. Since 1980's, China has developed rapidly in international textile trading and become a significant export country in this field. China textile industry plays an important role in the earning of foreign exchanges and contributes greatly to the development of China's economy.  

As a representative of China traditional industry, textile industry has also undergone sharp plunges in economic efficiency due to unfavorable environments and changes both in international & domestic markets in the past few years. Loss incurred in many textile enterprises and export competitiveness of the whole industry was greatly affected.

In recent years, with the industrial adjustment in structure and management, China textile industry has made distinctive achievement.

The output of main products is still ranked the first in the world and the export of the whole industry is still far ahead of other industries. In 1999, the export of textile and clothing began to recover from the after-math of the financial crisis in Southeast Asia. The domestic market became prosperous again and the reform in state-owned enterprises made significant headway. Along with Chinas fastened step toward the entry of WTO, China textile industry is marching toward a brand new development period.

Under the trend of economic globalization and trade liberalization, China textile industry faces severe challenges from opening market and fierce competition. After the entry into WTO, China will find itself in a more cruel battle ground with other big textile exporters in the pursuit of larger market share. Meanwhile, the liberalization in trading will lead to a fiercer competition among domestic textile enterprises. Based on authoritative documents and latest statistics, this report intends to make an analysis and overview on the development status and prospects of China textile industry
