Textile and Apparels
Malaysia has become a global trendsetter in the field of textiles and apparel wear. Malaysian designers have been creating clothing worn by celebrities, members of royalty and even heads of states. Malaysian textile and fashion entrepreneurs are more than capable of becoming international players, given their many talents.
The textile and apparels industry is an ever-growing market, with key competitors being China, EU, US and India. Nonetheless, Malaysia’s mature and well-established textile and apparels industry provides plentiful growth potential. Business opportunities lie in the higher end of the global value chain and the diversified production of higher value-added products.
Going forward, the industry’s growth will depend on building a stronger and more comprehensive ecosystem that focusses on talent, skills and innovation. Industry 4.0 technologies such as automation have impacted both the front-end as well as the back-end of the industry. Digital transformation has paved the way for completely new and efficient business models.
The importance of the textile and apparels industry continues to be prioritised in the industrial master plans, which identify industrial and technical textiles, functional fabrics, high-end fabrics and ethnic fabrics as growth categories. We welcome investments that are involved in the improvement of product quality while allowing the maintenance of reasonable price levels and contribute to the country’s export earnings.
