Pakistan’s exports to the United States increased by 10.4% during the first eight months of the current fiscal year.
According to official data, exports to North America rose by 9.7%, reaching 4.2 billion dollars.
A large portion, around 94% of Pakistan’s exports to the U.S. comprised textiles and garments, highlighting the sector’s key role in the country’s export economy.
The increase is attributed to improved trade facilitation under the Special Investment Facilitation Council (SIFC) and higher demand for Pakistani goods in the U.S. market.
Government reforms in trade policy, along with SIFC support, have played a key role in this growth.
The rise in exports is seen as a positive sign for Pakistan’s foreign exchange reserves and the recovery of its export sector.
