Compared to 2018, 2019 exported fewer jeans, and due to pandemic in 2020, it fell drastically around 25% compared to 2019. Also on the price front, we can see that Pakistan gets a much better price than its main competitor- Bangladesh, signifying that it is able to get orders for better quality products.

YEAR	QUANTITY IN MILLION PCS	PRICE IN EURO / PIECE
2010	37.67	5.82
2011	40.5	6.71

The following graph shows that the price peaked in 2015 and after that, it more or less hovered between Euro 7.00-7.60 We might likely see a rise in price in 2021.

Due to the pandemic in 2020, imports of jeans fell drastically around 25% since 2019. It is quite likely that the imports will pick up very strongly in 2021 and we might even see the figures exceeding that of 2019. Still women jeans forms about 40% of the total exports of its jeans to EU .

We can see that strangely that even the women’s jeans price peaked in 2015 and have seen a decline since.

Its strength and resilience has been visible during 2020 , when it increased its share of exports as compared to other countries . For Europe , Pakistan is now one of the most important sourcing destinations.
