INTRODUCTION The growth of the global economy provides U.S. firms with greater opportunities to seek out new markets and customers and to expand their businesses. Moreover, with increased competition from overseas, companies are looking to diversify their client base and find new ways to grow. The supply chain for textiles and apparel has become increasingly global, to include North America, Latin America, Europe, Africa and the Asia Pacific region. Customers, suppliers, manufacturers, and assemblers are located throughout the world, and represent new potential partners for U.S. firms looking to expand abroad. 2012 showed an increase in total textile and apparel exports at $22.7 billion, up from $22.4 in 2011, an increase of 1 percent. As foreign markets rebound and look to increase their purchases of textiles and apparel, U.S. companies have an opportunity to grow their business internationally. This market report presents the 15 largest export markets for U.S. exports of textiles and apparel. U.S. exporters are supplying yarns, fabrics, and finished products to mills, processors, assemblers, and consumers. U.S. exporters of textiles and apparel can use this information to help determine which markets are most attractive and offer the greatest long-term growth opportunities. This report also profiles the 5 fastest growing markets for U.S. exports of textiles and apparel. While exports to these countries are at lower levels, exports are growing rapidly and present new opportunities for U.S. companies. The increase in exports to these markets can be attributed to numerous factors including economic development and recently-signed Free Trade Agreements with the United States. Further information on countries not detailed in this report can be found online at the Office of Textiles and Apparel (OTEXA) website at www.otexa.ita.doc.gov. In addition, OTEXA provides counseling and advisory services and can help U.S. exporters prepare for entry into new markets.

OTEXA Enhancing Competitiveness of U.S. Industry OTEXA is actively involved in two priority initiatives: the National Export Initiative (NEI) and the Sustainable Manufacturing Initiative (SMI). The NEI, announced by President Obama during his State of the Union speech on January 27, 2010, has a goal of doubling exports in 5 years to support the creation of 2 million American jobs. The SMI identifies U.S. industry’s most pressing sustainable manufacturing challenges and coordinates public and private sector efforts to address these challenges. OTEXA is actively engaged in evaluating legislation and regulation that could impact the competitiveness of the U.S. textile and apparel industries, including the Berry Amendment. Research and Information Services OTEXA evaluates the current state of the domestic textiles and apparel industry, maintains economic data covering textiles and apparel, and conducts research into U.S. access to foreign markets. OTEXA provides information on a wide variety of topics including Intellectual Property Rights (IPR), customs procedures, transport, finance, tariffs and taxes. Trade Negotiations and Enforcement To ensure fair and balanced trade, OTEXA negotiates and implements Free Trade Agreement provisions. OTEXA also works with industry members to identify and resolve trade barriers in foreign markets and unfair trade practices. Trade Promotion and Business Opportunities Through trade promotion events organized by OTEXA, stakeholders can stay informed of the benefits of Free Trade Agreements (FTAs) and preference programs, potential markets for business, and new business opportunities. Information, Counseling and Advisory Services Access online resources and get personalized counseling as you prepare to enter new international markets. OTEXA has developed information on design, supply chain, retailing and other business areas to facilitate participation of U.S. companies in international markets. Trade specialists are also available to provide advice if your company is being adversely affected by trade barriers or unfair practices. Strategy, Planning and Market Research As you look to enter new markets, OTEXA can help you develop and improve your international business strategy and assist you in targeting the best international markets for your products. Different countries have different tariffs and import fees – OTEXA can identify this information as well as Schedule B and HS numbers. Advertising and Promotional Events OTEXA can help increase your brand awareness and market exposure globally. In addition to events such as trade missions and trade shows, OTEXA organizes educational seminars, onsite company visits for training and strategy development, and matching services to help U.S. firms meet international buyers, distributors and representatives.
