Pakistan has attained a creditable position in the world because of its large scale textile industry. It ranks fourth in the output of cotton and ranks third in the consumption of cotton in Asia. The share of cotton export is 60% of total export of Pakistan. The government of Pakistan has advanced the detach ministry of textile commerce in the year 2004 after the superior operation of commerce in the area of Apparels.
Right now it seems that Pakistan Textile commerce is in a stagnant condition. The higher output costs have brought about this regress. Because of the internal competition with other industries the output cost goes high, and the higher cost weakens the conditions of the Pakistan export shop in the international market. Exports of Pakistan textiles are not praise-worthy in comparison with those of Bangladesh, China and India. The figures of apparel export of Pakistan, China, India, Bangladesh and Sri Lanka to the Us in the first half of the year 2006 are shown in the following chart.

Karachi is main contributor in the economy of country by sharing 67%, though it lacks singular commercial area. This gives negative corollary to the industry. Along with it also lacks proper roads and sewage systems. The services like electricity, gas and water cost more than other areas and also lacking the recycle plants of waste products. Industries get water provide through tankers which cost high so it directly affects the output cost.
