(MENAFN– America News Hour)
COVID-19 pandemic which has caused major disruptions to the international trade flows and global economy has resulted in a sudden drop in the textile productivity in the Latin American region. The pandemic has largely impacted the region. Mexican textile and clothing industry, which is one among the top markets in the region has been operating the entire supply chain from the cotton and other man-made fibre production. Mexico being one of the key supplier of textiles and clothing to the United States which sends a large proportion of its textile and related product exports to the United States has been facing difficulties in manufacturing due to the lockdown and other safety measures. The situation is expected to get back to the pre-COVID scenario slowly, yet is anticipated to register slow growth rate during the forecast period.

Latin America is home to some major textile-producing nations, such as Peru, Brazil, and Colombia. Peru is South America’s biggest clothing exporter, and it boasts of unique domestic raw materials, especially alpaca fibre and Tangüis cotton. Brazil, a BRIC country, has an enormous growth potential in both its textile supply chains – natural fibres and man-made fibres. Colombia is also expected to witness great opportunities in the textile and fashion industry. Meanwhile, the CAFTA-DR countries – Costa Rica, Dominican Republic, El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras, and Nicaragua – are eagerly competing among themselves and against Haiti, for niches in the US market.
