The report notes that EU textile and clothing imports rose in value in 2013 following a decline in the previous year and, as a result, imports remained short of the peak reached in 2011. In volume terms, imports rose faster but remained below the levels reached during 2007-08 and 2010-11.

The report also notes that there were falls in the average prices of textile and clothing imports from nine of the EU's ten largest supplying countries. The report includes an appendix containing information and data on exchange rates, the effect of quota liberalisation on EU imports, the impact of China's accession to the World Trade Organization (WTO), and the impact of the elimination of China safeguard restrictions on EU imports from China and EU imports from Vietnam.
