The line graph provides data about the trend of value of clothes derived from Bangladesh between 1988 and 2000. The pie chart compares the proportion of exported clothes that arrived at five key markets and the size of each.
Overall, it is clear that clothing from Bangladesh had gone up significantly in value since the beginning of the period. Meanwhile, it is obvious that the European Union imported clothing’s market accounted for the largest portion.
Looking at the lines, it can be observed that prior to 1988, Bangladesh had little to no clothes being exported. Over the following years, exported volume of clothing had been gradually increasing til the year 2000, valueing at just below 5 billion dollars. Since then, the value had skyrocketed with rapid and steady increase every year. In 2012, the clothes derived from Bangladesh is valued at roughly 20 billion dollars.
Regarding the pie chart, the biggest market for exported clothing was obviously the European Union’s, with more than 11 billion dollars worth of clothes. Coming in second was the market of the USA, valued at right under a half of the aforemention EU (around 4.53 billion dollars). In contrast, the next three destinations had much less volume of imported clothing. Specifically, Canada had only a fifth of what the USA is valued for, while Japan had less than a half and Turkey had about a fifth of that of Canada.
