Direction
of Imports of Pakistan:
Pakistan’s
imports are highly concentrated in few countries. Over 40 percent of
them continue to originate from just seven countries namely, the USA,
Japan, Kuwait, Saudi Arabia, Germany, UK and Malaysia. Saudi Arabia
is emerging as major supplier to Pakistan followed by the USA and
Japan. The shares of USA and Japan, with some fluctuations, exhibited
a declining trend because of the shift in the import of
machinery/capital goods and raw materials to other sources. On the
other hand, the share of Pakistan’s imports from Saudi Arabia has
been rising due to higher imports of POL products. Malaysia share has
shown rising, as well as, falling trends over the years mainly on
account of fluctuations in palm oil prices

EXPLANATION:
This
year, Pakistan has imported 20 million kg of teas from India, which
is one of the highest in recent years.
According to
the reports, A drop in Kenyan production has also helped India to
strengthen its position in the Pakistani market.
Pakistan
is largely a market for the CTC variety and said to be the second
largest
importer after Russia.
Almost
65%-70% of Pakistan’s total official tea import comes from Kenya,
while India accounts for 15%. But with Kenyan production down by
almost 9% to 259.77 million kg, India has expanded its import this
year.
A
trade delegation from Pakistan Tea Association will be visiting
India in April during which long-term business deals are expected to
be clinched.
With
Iran stopping its purchases from India due to a payment problem,
Indian tea producers are banking on Pakistan as one of the emerging
export markets in the coming years.
