    1. History:

    Pakistan is known as an agricultural country. Pakistan is prominent in the world due to its finest

    quality cotton. The raw cotton is converted into yarn and this yarn is then weaved into fabrics. The

    processed fabrics and garments made through are the major contributor to the Pakistani economy.

    Textile sector is playing a key role in GDP, exports and employment as it is one of the most

    important sector of Pakistani Industry. In the long run, textile sector is believed to be the backbone

    of the Pakistani economy. This raw cotton is also used other textile axillaries like cloth, towel,

    knits, bed linen, socks etc.). In the year 2004, Ministry of Textile Industry was established by the

    Govt. of Pakistan for better progress. However, the rules and regulations are determined by All

    Pakistan Textile Mills Association (APTMA) in the industry.

    The textile sector employs over 38% of industrial labor force and earns over 60% foreign exchange

    of total exports. It also contributes 8.50% of total national income and shares 9% in GDP. The

    Pakistans textile industry has total spinning capacity of 1550 million kgs of yarn. The weaving &

    finishing capacities are more than 4368 and 4000 million square meters of fabric, similarly. The

    capacity of production is 670 million units of garments, 400 million units of knitwear and 53

    million kgs of towels. In the last few years, the textile and garment machinery has imported in

    Pakistan about 5.2 billion US dollars, due to which the quality and production efficiency has been

    increased extensively. The Govt. of Pakistan is estimated the target of exports of textiles and

    garments over US$10 billion. Pakistan is the 8th largest country in Asia as exporter of textile

    products.

    important for stakeholders. They are eager to know the operations of their organizations. They have

    craved to identify that how much they have to get in touch with the organizations for benefits.
