Advantage South Asia:
- South Asia is one of the world’s premier garment export hub accounting for 12% of global exports and manufacturing 80% of the world’s brands.
- South Asian industry can benefit from the intra-regional trade brought about by regional cumulation. Sri Lanka plays a pivotal role for intra-regional integration due to its politically neutral status in the South Asian region, creating a positive business environment for entrepreneurs from Sri Lanka, India, Pakistan and Bangladesh to meet and do business together. Thus making Sri Lanka the “gateway to the huge South Asian market“.
- India, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka & Pakistan together exported garments worth US$ 49 billion in 2014-15 and are expected to reach US$ 84 billion by 2020.
- South Asia’s greatest opportunity also lies in the fact that it has the largest youth population (487 million) in the world. With increasing disposable incomes, they are driving higher apparel sales year after year in the domestic markets, which in turn is also accelerating intra-regional trade.

Why Sri Lanka?
Sri Lanka is one of the world’s leading destinations for “Ethical Business and Manufacturing Practices” in the Global Fashion and Apparel Sourcing Business.
It’s a strategic sourcing destination in the sub-continent for multiple global designer brands and retailers.
Sri Lanka’s position as a central meeting point makes it the optimum place to do business with the huge South Asian market while also providing access to the UK and European markets.
It is located at the nerve centre for world shipping traffic from east to west and acts as nodal point for worldwide shipping, thus creating stronger regional and global connects.
The country aims to cross the USD 11 billion apparel export mark by 2024 which would create new opportunities and demand for sourcing textiles into the country from South Asia and other markets.
The growing domestic and home grown apparel brands industry is valued at USD 1 billion and is expected to double by 2024, which would also generate opportunities for smart and innovative textiles to be sourced from South Asia and other Asian markets to meet demand.
