Abstract
The study was designed to find out the key determinants of the
competitiveness of the textile industry of Pakistan and also the
impact of these determinants on performance. Survey was
designed to conduct the research in the sector by using finance,
productivity, supply and demand-side determinants to measure
enterprises’ competitiveness. 183 Public Limited Textile
companies listed at KSE (Karachi Stock Exchange) were taken
as sample for the study. Exploratory factor analysis technique
was applied to find out the key elements of each major dimension
of competitiveness. Findings demonstrate that key elements of
each dimension include two from finance, three from
productivity, four from supply and two from demand side. This
suggests that the improvement in these eleven areas can foster
industry performance, and that more resources should be
endowed to enhance the domestic business competitiveness of
local enterprises.
