Cambodia has not been able to really cash in to their special status for GSP in Europe because of their infrastructural issues and labor problems where the factories find it tough to operate even though the costs are lower. Vietnam – the next door neighbor – is taking the advantage and improving exports each year even though they don’t have any GSP benefit to Europe. This clearly shows that duty advantages can only be one of the factor which can help a country improve exports. But the country has to manage itself well to be able to perform well.

We hope in the coming times, there will be some correction and the country recovers with a bang. Cambodia has great potential but some of the recent events including labor unrest and strikes caused adverse effects on the exports of apparel. The consistency and favorable business policies are need of the hour, the international buyers are now shifting their sourcing base from china and other countries and Cambodia, Myanmar, Vietnam, India, and Ethiopia are one of them which could make the most of it.
