Pakistan is a South Asian country. It has a $376 billion GDP and a GDP per capita of $1,658. Pakistan is part of the Indian Subcontinent, and as a result, has a historic textile industry as well. The textile industry is the backbone of the Pakistani economy and accounts for the largest share of its exports. Additionally, Pakistan is also the origin point of the textile industry in India.

The textile industry also faces several constraints in the industry, the biggest of which is unreliable electricity.
