Pashmina knitwear has emerged as another product with high export possibility in the international market, the Nepal Pashmina Industries Association (NPIA) has said. According to NPIA, since the last four years, demand for pashmina knitwear has been increasing gradually. “The overall export statistics of knitwear shows Japan as the highest importer, followed by the US, UK, Germany, Hong Kong and Switzerland,“ said general secretary of NPIA Vijoy Dugar. Earlier, Nepal did not have good involvement in knitwear but with participation in international trade fairs, people from the international market have started showing interest in knitwear too. Knitwear products exported to the international market mainly include ladies and gents sweaters, vests, caps, gloves and baby wear, which are made from the same yarn used in pashmina. However, under pashmina products, shawls, stoles, mufflers, blankets and scarves are the varieties that are exported. According to Nepal Pashmina Industries Association, earlier China, India and Italy used to make bulk exports of knitwear products in the international market.
