| dc.description.abstract | Ethiopia has a long history of manufacturing traditional textiles using hand spun yarn and handlooms for weaving. This activity has been part of the cottage industry and is considered to be a major source of employment both in rural and urban areas. Manufacturing textiles on industrial scale had made its beginning in Ethiopia in 1939. Despite its long history the sector had not been given enough attention until very recently. Appreciating benefits such as foreign exchange earnings, employment opportunity and income contribution to its gross domestic product that could be earned from the sector the Ethiopian government had provided various supports to improve the textile and garment sector but failing to achieve its targets. This research using shift-share analysis and other tools explored the performance and prospect of the sector. Although the aspired targets have not been achieved almost all the product categories under the textile and garment sector have shown improvement in export performance. Based on the analysis garment export has shown highest performance amongst other products in the category. United States has emerged as the most important export destination for textile and garment export from Ethiopia. | en_US |
