Pakistan’s trade performance reflects both challenges and opportunities. In FY2024–25, exports were recorded at $32.1 billion, slightly below the target of $32.3 billion, while imports surged past projections, widening the trade deficit to $26.2 billion.
Key Export Sectors:
- Textiles & Apparel: $18.4 billion (60% of total exports).
- Rice: $3.6 billion (5.6 million tonnes).
- Leather: $3 billion.
- Sports Goods: $1.5 billion.
- Surgical Instruments: $654 million.
- Top Destinations: USA ($4B), Germany ($1.9B), UK ($1.74B).
Imports remain dominated by petroleum, machinery, electronics, and pharmaceutical raw materials. For businesses, these figures highlight the importance of efficient shipping and customs processes to balance the trade deficit.
