The second report in our apparel sourcing series

Report description

Cover image for Tomorrows apparel industry report

Although China still holds the lion’s share of the apparel sourcing market, higher prices due to increasing labour costs and raw material costs have been putting pressure on its market share, giving a more competitive edge to other regions. Although low-cost Asian countries such as Bangladesh and Vietnam have benefited most, as explored in just-style’s sister report published earlier this year – Apparel sourcing in Asia – forecasts to 2016 – Central America and the Caribbean Basin have also seen a concurrent increase in exports.

This latest title in our new regional apparel sourcing reports reviews Latin America and analyses apparel sourcing countries including: Mexico, Haiti, Dominican Republic, Honduras, El Salvador, Nicaragua, Guatemala, Costa Rica, Peru, Colombia, Ecuador and Brazil.

The report provides historic and forecasted volumes of United States imports by garment type from each sourcing country. It also reviews each country's production capacity, competition, market structure, key products and trends.

The report also provides an overview of all relevant legislation and trade agreements which affect the region.

With current and future trends analysed and predicted, this latest sourcing report from just-style provides a complete overview of this key sourcing region and will update you on the most important issues influencing apparel sourcing in every major South American country.
