There are some interesting things to note from the above figures:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. China<\/strong> has seen a stumpendous increase in exports of Women\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s\/Girls\u00e2\u20ac\u2122 Denim Jeans exports to USA and has almost doubled the same within a year. However, these figures have to be seen alongwith the figures of exports of Hongkong which has almost lost 90% of its exports. This clearly means that the denim jeans that  were last year being exported from Hongkong are now being exported through China. Inspite of this , the increase in China\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s exports of Jeans has been phenomenal.. Has it got something to do with recession and a preference for cheaper products?? <\/li>\n
  2. Most of the South American countries<\/strong> like Nicaragua, Costa Rica, Guatemala have been continously losing share of these exports (womens\u00e2\u20ac\u2122 denim). However, the South East Asian \/South Asian countries like Vietnam, Cambodia, Bangladesh ,Pakistan and Sri Lanka have been improving their share. Vietnam\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s performance has been ,in particular , hs been very impressive in this category of denim jeans. <\/li>\n
  3. It is interesting to see that Jordan and Egypt<\/strong> both have increased their share. It shows that currently Egypt is not proving as much a threat to Jordan\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s exports (in this category) as had been feared. <\/li>\n
  4. It is however, to be noted that the exports of denim jeans (men\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s as well as women\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s ) peak during the second half of the year<\/strong>. The figures for many countries could change during this half and show some reversal in trends. But the overall undertone for denim  is strongly positive<\/font><\/strong> and shows that sales of denim jeans is nowhere affected by the recessionary times. <\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    I shall shortly post a report on the imports of Mens\u00e2\u20ac\u2122\/Boys\u00e2\u20ac\u2122 Denim Jeans into USA in 2009 and I hope that it shall show similar positive trends..<\/p>\n
