The line graph shows the changes in the total amount of clothes exported from four regions between 2000 and 2014. Overall, the percentage of export of clothing in China adhered to a consistently rising trend, with this nation overtaking other areas of the world as the largest exporter of clothes, while the reverse was true for the USA, European Union (the EU), and Asia (not including China). It is also clear that the USA export figures were the lowest throughout.
Despite exhibiting similar initial figures, the gap between China and the USA widened considerably over the period. The former started at just under 15% in 2000, a figure that then saw a steady increase of around 22 percentage points, closing the period with a chart high of about 36% export of apparels. By contrast, the latter showed a less significant change by marginally declining from a little over 10% in 2000 to close to 8% over the ensuing eight years. This number climbed back minimally to 9% before reaching an all-time low of 6% in 2014.
The export figures for the remaining regions, on the other hand, decreased considerably. The proportion of clothes exported in the EU and Asia were the highest in 2000, with respective figures of 32% and 30%. However, these numbers fell at varying rates, with the EU witnessing a steady drop to just over 20% in its export of clothing items in 2014 and Asia almost halving (around 17%) in 2002. This figure was unchanged until 2008, after which it rose to exactly 20% at the end of the period.
