According to industry insiders, garment and textile exports to the EU in the second half of the year will continue to bounce back, especially ahead in the holiday season of Christmas and the Lunar New Year. However, some firms have expressed their prudence as consumers remain cautious in terms of spending, including on textiles and garments, despite inflation decreasing. Therefore, despite recording a rebound in garment and textile exports, the sector is not likely to achieve double-digit growth this year.
