Sri Lanka’s apparel export industry is one of the most significant contributors to the economy. The industry has recorded substantial growth levels over the past four decades and is currently the country’s leading export, accounting for approximately 45 percent of total exports, and it provides about 33 percent of the manufacturing employment in the country. This industry, which is entirely privately owned, has been successful in the international market. Sri Lanka’s apparel exports were $4.8 billion in 2016. greater emphasis on product quality |
