KARACHI: At the 25th Anniversary of Intertextile Shanghai Apparel Fabrics, Pakistan will complete its 21 years of regular participation, as 32 Pakistani companies under the auspices of Trade Development Authority of Pakistan (TDAP) are participating in the event.
It may be mentioned here despite over 30 percent rupee devaluation, country’s overall textile sector exports declined 1.42 percent to $13.329 billion in the fiscal year ended June 30, 2019, as higher cost of doing business kept the sector under pressure.
