    2020 V. 2019 Comparative Analysis on Import Trend

    The COVID affect looks very apparent once we analyse the import figures of Mar-May for both the years. In 2020, Import witnessed a fall of approx. 49%, meaning the business is slashed by half due to global lockdown and restricted movement.

    However, one more important outcome of this analysis is that, China has been losing its share to Colombian Denim Export very brutally. China’s share has taken a toll, a total fall of 77% within a year is massive. China’s loss became India’s gain and the country managed to increase its penetration from 25% to 60% within a year.

    All the other countries have experience the substantial fall in their share with India being a sole exception.

  • Colombian Denim Buyers In Aug-Sept. 2017

    Colombia has been known for its innovation in the denim world and constantly investing its resources in R&D to bring new innovation in line with global trends. The country has over 12  trade agreements which allows this country a preferential access to EU , Canada and Mexico . The country is under negotiation to sign a bilateral trade agreement with Japan and Turkey also. The country is demographically rich and thus enjoying the demographical dividend due to its proximity to Panama Canal which paves a smooth connection between the East Coast of the U.S. and Asia.

    Further to our previous reports, we are providing here a special report on the buyers in Colombia who are importing denim fabrics from around the world. The contents of the report are as below :
