As the global fashion and outdoor industries accelerate toward carbon neutrality and material circularity, Taiwan's leading manufacturers are reshaping the sustainable textile supply chain. The Taiwan Textile Federation (TTF) is proud to announce the premiere of "From Fiber to Future: 2026 Green Textile Solutions" - an exclusive online product launch tracking the frontline of circularity and material innovation.

In June 2026, Vietnam's textile and apparel exports recovered clearly after a month of heavy pressure in May. Total export turnover was estimated at USD 4.22 billion, up 10.9% against May and up 2.5% year-on-year, marking a return to positive growth. For the first half of 2026, industry-wide exports reached an estimated USD 22.20 billion, up 1.7% against the same period of 2025.
This is a positive signal for the drive toward raw material self-sufficiency and higher added value that VITAS and the business community are pursuing.VITAS is pleased to present to members and readers the Textile and Apparel Newsletter No. 06/2026, compiling key developments in policy and in domestic and international markets, accompanying enterprises on the journey to strengthen internal capacity and standing in the global value chain.

In May 2026, Vietnam's textile and apparel industry continued to face pressure from weakening demand in its key export markets. Total textile and apparel export turnover was estimated at USD 3.61 billion, down 1.8% from April and 5.5% year-on-year. Even so, in the first five months of the year, sector-wide exports still reached USD 17.78 billion, edging up 0.43% from the same period in 2025, reflecting the resilience of enterprises against a demand base that has yet to truly recover.

In April 2026, Vietnam's textile and apparel industry recorded total export turnover of an estimated USD 3.73 billion, down 1.7% from March but still up 3.3% year-on-year. These figures reflect continued export stability amid persistent volatility in international markets. For the first four months of 2026, total textile and apparel export turnover reached USD 14.24 billion, up 2.7% compared to the same period in 2025. The result reflects sustained efforts by the business community in retaining orders, expanding markets and adapting to new global supply chain requirements. Standing alongside enterprises, VITAS continues to deliver practical updates on markets, policies, association activities and connection opportunities in this Newsletter Issue No. 04/2026.
