Footwear exports earned $109mn, showing a decline of 23.6% YoY. According to industry experts, export orders for GFT goods would not revive until mid-2023 as retailers in Europe and the US have just too much stock from unsold goods from the previous seasons. Ukraine war and inflation have also caused a downward trend in the global demand for GFT. (Source: Khmer Times)
