China solidifies dominance in Cambodia’s knitted fabric market

China’s influence in Cambodia’s knitted fabric market has been significantly reinforced, according to recent industry reports. The growing presence of Chinese textiles in Cambodia underscores a shift in the regional fabric supply chain and highlights the strategic economic moves by Chinese manufacturers.

Chinese textile firms have been increasingly penetrating Cambodia’s knitted fabric sector, driven by competitive pricing, advanced manufacturing technologies, and strong trade relationships. This expansion is evident in the substantial increase in Chinese knitted fabric exports to Cambodia, which now dominate the market.

Chinese products have become integral to Cambodia’s garment manufacturing, benefiting from both cost efficiency and high-quality production standards.

The influx of Chinese knitted fabrics has been facilitated by favorable trade agreements and an efficient supply chain, which includes streamlined logistics and distribution channels.

This strategic positioning allows Chinese manufacturers to meet the rising demand for knitted fabrics in Cambodia’s burgeoning garment industry, which is a crucial component of the country’s export-oriented economy.



Cambodia’s garment sector, a major contributor to its GDP and employment, relies heavily on imported fabrics, and the growing share of Chinese textiles reflects broader trends in regional trade dynamics.

As Chinese firms continue to strengthen their foothold, they are expected to further influence market conditions and pricing strategies in Cambodia.



This development highlights the increasing interconnectedness of the global textile market and the pivotal role of China in shaping industry trends across Southeast Asia. The continued expansion of Chinese textiles into Cambodia’s market underscores China’s strategic approach to global textile trade and economic influence.
