Textile Mills in Canada - Industry Market Research Report

New threads: Textile mills will slowly shift their efforts and invest more in research and development

Widespread offshoring of apparel manufacturing has been detrimental to the Textile Mills industry in Canada, as distant apparel manufacturers are unlikely to source their textiles from domestic mills. A shrinking downstream apparel market and a dip in exports have caused revenue to creep downward during the period. Even so, more home furnishing textiles and shifting producing protective equipment during the pandemic provided a safety net for textile mills, preventing a significant slump in revenue. Nonetheless, some mills experienced closures and were forced to exit entirely because they were unprofitable. Overall, textile mills' revenue is expected to decline at a CAGR of 2.9% to $3.6 billion over the past five years, including a decrease of 3.0% in 2023 alone.
