Global Perspective

The Textiles & Apparel industry is a powerhouse of global commerce, spanning fashion, home textiles, and technical applications. Valued in the hundreds of billions, the global market is fueled by increasing urbanization, rising disposable incomes, and innovations like eco-friendly fibers and smart textiles. The projected CAGR of 5.2% through 2030 underscores the industry’s steady growth trajectory, with emerging markets—particularly in the Asia-Pacific and Africa regions—playing a central role in this expansion. By 2025, the Asia-Pacific market is expected to dominate, driven by its expanding middle class, robust manufacturing hubs, and growing demand for fashion and technical textiles.
