According to a report by the “Daily Star” on November 4, Bangladesh’s apparel exports to the United States from January to September 2018 reached US$4.17 billion, a year-on-year increase of 5.83%. Industry analysts believe that one of the reasons for the growth of Bangladesh’s apparel exports to the United States is the U.S.-China trade war. Rahman, chairman of the Bangladesh Garment Manufacturers and Exporters Association, said that the United States has been Bangladesh’s largest clothing export destination for many years. With the recovery of the U.S. economy, Bangladesh’s clothing exports to the United States are expected to grow by 10-15%.
