Apparel Industry growing in the Vietnam

The apparel and textile industry in Vietnam has overtaken crude oil as that country's No. 1 export.
During the first 10 months of this year, Vietnam shipped $7.5 billion in apparel and textiles to primarily the United States and Europe, according to the Vietnamese General Statistics Office.
Vietnam's apparel manufacturing sector has grown rapidly ever since the U.S. government early this year stopped monitoring Vietnamese apparel coming into the United States. The Bush administration feared that Vietnam would dump apparel goods on the U.S. market and started closely watching import prices in 2007 to determine whether anti-dumping duties should be imposed.
The Department of Commerce held six-month reviews of five different apparel products-trousers, shirts, underwear, accessories, swimwear and sweaters-but found no signs of dumping.

Singh was speaking on the eve of a summit with US President Barack Obama, whose administration indicated hours earlier it would propose a target for carbon emission cuts ahead of next month's high-stakes Copenhagen summit.
China and other growing developing out have been pressing for Western nations to offer technology and other support to help them reduce the intensity of emissions blamed for global warming.
But the emerging economies have resisted legally binding requirements, saying it is not they, but wealthy nations which bear responsibility for carbon emissions.

Apparel buyers should look beyond price

But better sourcing is not simply about buying at a lower price, according to Sue Butler, senior manager at Kurt Salmon Associates (KSA), the global consultancy specialising in retail and consumer goods.
Speaking at a seminar in London last week on 'Global Sourcing Skills and Supply Chains,' Butler said: "Quite often sourcing just looks at how we get products at the lowest price possible, but a sourcing strategy looks at how you get product at the right price and quality and in a balanced way.
By developing the right sourcing strategy it is possible to maintain margins and not get drawn into an increased level of markdown towards the end of the season.
Butler also points out that shoppers also have higher expectations too, not only for newness but in the use of technology such as the internet to make price comparisons.
