    Competitive Landscape Brief

    Demand is largely determined by consumer tastes and the comparative costs of manufacture in the US and overseas. The profitability of individual companies depends on efficient operations and the ability to secure contracts with clothing marketers. Small companies can compete effectively with large ones by specializing in a particular type of apparel manufacture. There are few economies of scale in manufacture, because of the high labor content of most apparel. The industry is labor-intensive: average annual revenue per production worker is about $90,000. Because of the lower costs to manufacture apparel abroad, the US imports more clothes than it makes domestically. Imports account for about 85 percent of the US market. The largest suppliers to the US are Bangladesh, China, Indonesia, Mexico, and Vietnam. Major export markets for US apparel manufacturers include Canada, Mexico, and Japan. Exports account for about 30 percent of US production.
