From January to November in 2021, China's clothing exports to major markets maintained a high growth, with exports to the United States, the European Union and Japan by 38.1%, 22.6% and 8.5% respectively, to countries along the "Belt and Road Initiative" route by 28.6%, and to ASEAN, the Middle East, Africa and Latin America by 26.3%, 27.6%, 35.3% and 48.7%, respectively. Exports to South Korea, Australia and Canada increased by 23.9%, 30.6% and 11.7%, respectively. 1/3 of the increase in China's clothing exports in the first 11 months of 2021 came from exports to the United States.

At the same time of the growth of China's clothing exports, China's home textile exports have always maintained a rapid growth in the first 11 months of 2021. In the first 11 months of 2021, higher value-added products such as beds, curtains and blankets led the export growth, with an increase of more than 28%, while products such as towels and kitchen supplies grew relatively slowly, with an increase of 16% to 23%.
