Recently, Moises, president of the Mexican National Chamber of Textile Industry, said that in the past 11 months, Mexico’s low-priced textile imports have increased by 60%, replacing Mexico’s domestic products, resulting in Mexico’s textile and garment sector accounting for the total domestic production. The proportion of values decreased by 5% to 7%. He believes that in recent years, low-priced textile and garment products entering the Mexican market have become the biggest obstacle to the development of this sector, and therefore hopes that the federal government will formulate integrated measures to prevent the continued spread of this situation.
Among various types of fabrics, polyester is the most imported product at low prices, followed by rainproof cloth and denim. Among ready-made garments, bras and denim clothing are the most imported products at low prices.
