“…Also, the findings of this work are in line with the paper of Hatab (2017) who estimated an augmented gravity model equation using annual data covering the period 1994–2012 on Egyptian and Chinese textile exports to traditional importers of Egyptian textiles. He reported that the Chinese exports cover almost the whole spectrum of textile products in terms of product varieties and quality levels, whereas the Egyptian textile exports are limited to relatively smaller number of high-quality textile products.…”

The purpose of this study is to find out the determinants and issues influencing Bangladeshi textile and clothing (T&C) exports. A unique data set has been generated and used to estimate the panel gravity model of Bangladeshi T&C export flows to a total of its 40 trade partners over a period of 27 years, spanning from 1990 to 2017. The results show that the gross domestic product (GDP), real exchange rate and per capita GDP of the importers have appeared to be major determinants of Bangladesh’s textile exports trade. Also, Bangladesh and World Trade Organization membership have a strong positive significant impact on T&C exports. The geographical distance has no strong significant effect on textile trading. It is found that European Union and North American Free Trade Agreement countries are the two important export destinations for the garments of Bangladesh. This study is a novel and significant contribution for a couple of reasons: First, Bangladesh’s major trading partners are covered in this study sample. Second, the article’s focus on the gravity panel data analysis fills up a major research gap on the determinants of exports of the Bangladeshi garments. This study will thus pave the new avenues for further research in future.

“…The rapid growth of Chinese textile exports threatens Egyptian textiles for the United States and European Union markets. The study also found that Egyptian textile exports declined in both markets (Hatab, 2017). Zyl & Matswalela (2016) found that the level of competitiveness of the TPT industry in South Africa is the lowest compared to 18 other developing countries.…”

Indonesian textile and clothing products (TPT) is the second-largest export product after oil palm product. There are five biggest export destination countries, that is the United States, Japan, South Korea, and Turkey. This study aims to analyze the factors that affect TPT exports to the five biggest export destination countries. The factors that affect TPT exports examined by using time series and panel data analysis. Using panel data analysis finds that GDP per capita of the destination country, the exchange rate of the Rupiah, the price of textiles in the destination country, and import tariffs stipulate in the destination country affect TPT exports. Then, using time series analysis finds that GDP per capita and import tariffs affected TPT export to the United States, China, and Turkey. Meanwhile, the factors influencing Indonesian textile exports to Japan and South Korea are textile prices, rupiah exchange rates, and import tariffs.JEL Classification: F14, F43How to Cite:Irvansyah, F., Siregar, H., & Novianti, T.

PurposeThe purpose of this paper is to describe and analyze the impacts that the recent proliferation of private and overlapping standards is having in the trade of agricultural products from developing countries.Design/methodology/approachIn a first stage industry experts in the Chilean fresh fruit trading industry were interviewed to understand the perceived impact that private standards are imposing in the industry. These interviews allowed to identify the market case study, table grapes, the landscape of private standards and their prevalence in different countries. In a second stage, a gravity trade model for trade in table grapes was estimated, with a focus on the more stringent countries identified by experts in the first stage.FindingsWe show evidence that the proliferation of private standards required by large European retailers has diverted trade away from more stringent countries that require more certifications (and into less stringent European markets). We also show that the costs of these additional certifications have been shared by trading partners, via an increase in direct sales, as opposed to consignment (the traditional marketing mode), which is associated with higher prices.Research limitations/implicationsThe impacts of the recent proliferation of private and overlapping standards in international trade needs to be better understood both by the legal and economic literature. While the use of private standards has been growing since the 1990s, there is a recent trend of large European retailers imposing their own and overlapping standards that needs to be better understood to inform policy.Originality/valueWhile there is a thin literature on the impact of private standards on trade, most of this has studied the effects of the now de facto mandatory GlobalGAP certification. However, there is a recent trend by large European retailers of demanding their own private certifications, together with other already existing overlapping private standards. This study describes and analyzes the impacts of this rather new trend.
