 TEXTLE SECTOR OF PAKISTAN

HISTORY/BACKGROUND

Textile Processing Sector has been operative virtually since the very inception of
Pakistan in 1947. With the sudden upsurge of Textile industry in Pakistan during
the fifth and sixth decades when quite a few Textile Spinning and Composite
Units started picking up roots and Power Loom Units sprang up like mushroom in
Pakistan in the unorganized sector, in every nook and corner, whose number
rose to about 0.3 million plus. As out of necessity, a proportionate number of
Processing Units was required for dyeing, bleaching, printing, sunforising,
finishing, packing and packaging of the raw-fabric which was being mass-
produced by the unorganized Power Loom Sector. And this was the occasion
when the entrepreneurs and pioneers of the Processing Sector rose to the
occasion and, remarkably enough, came out with flying colors. Despite their
meager resources, they succeeded not only in making the country self-sufficient
in dress and

apparel, but also in providing quality fabrics to the International Export Market
while their quality was second to none.

The Textile Processing is one of the most value-added and export-oriented sector
of Textile Industries in Pakistan. All Pakistan Textile Processing Mills
Association (APTPMA) was formally affiliated with the Federation of Pakistan
