MARKET ASPECTS OF GARMENTS/ APPAREL INDUSTRY

 

  • INTRODUCTION

 

The apparel market consists of sales of apparel by entities (organizations, sole traders and partnerships) that manufacture apparel. Apparel refers to clothing or garments in general. Apparel manufacturers cut and sew (i.e., purchase fabric and cut and sew to make a garment) and/or produce garments by first knitting fabric and then cutting and sewing the fabric into a garment.

 

The apparel industry includes companies manufacturing full lines of ready-to-wear apparel and custom apparel; apparel contractors, performing cutting or sewing operations on materials owned by others; jobbers, performing entrepreneurial functions involved in apparel manufacturing; tailors, manufacturing custom garments for individual clients; and entities that combine knitting with the production of complete garments, but excluding producers of knitting fabric not combined with the produce of complete garments. Companies in the apparel industry produce garments such as shirts, T-shirts, jackets, socks, uniforms, caps, hats, neckties and belts. Apparels are made of cotton, linen, polyester and other textiles.

 

The apparel industries contribute significantly towards the national economy of many countries. Although the apparel industry is global in nature, the manufacturing facilities from developed countries are shifting to developing countries to reduce the labour cost. Even in these developing countries, the garment industries are facing the greatest challenges in spite of the cheap labour cost, due to the short production life-cycle, high volatility, low predictability, high level of impulse purchase and the quick market response. To reduce the cost of production, the garment industries in developing countries are rather focusing on sourcing of cheaper raw materials and minimizing delivery cost than labour productivity due to the availability of cheap labour.

 

The apparel industry is one of the most booming industries. With Indian apparel being among the world's largest producers, the country is also the 5th largest exporter of apparel and textile across the globe. The apparel industry contributes 5 percent to the country's GDP from the domestic sector; whereas 7 percent is contributed from the industrial output in value terms and the export earnings of the country acquire a contribution of 12 percent from the apparel industry.
