With a total capacity to manufacture around 80 million garments per year, Pearl Global generates more than 61% of its revenue from exports to the United States, serving premium retailers like GAP, Kohl’s, Macy’s, Walmart, Nordstrom, Ann Taylor, Chico’s, and Target Australia, among others.
As per a report by IMARC, the Indian textile and apparel industry achieved a market size of $172.3 billion in 2022 and will continue to expand at a CAGR of 14.59% from 2023 to 2028, with a forecasted market value of $387.3 billion in 2028.
This impressive growth is attributed to various factors, including the increasing demand for high-quality clothing and footwear, the government’s implementation of schemes to empower weavers, and the rising popularity of ethically sourced sustainable materials.
Meanwhile, in the recent Union Budget 2023–24, the grant for Pradhan Mantri Mega Integrated Textile Region was raised to ₹200 crore from ₹3 crore earlier.
In FY23, the company recorded a 16.4% YoY increase in revenue and an 81.8% YoY increase in EBITDA. This can be attributed to the company’s improved operational efficiencies, integration of the Alpha unit in Bangladesh, better product mix, and higher profitability in Vietnam and Bangladesh.
The company aims at achieving a 15%–20% CAGR in revenue over the next 3–4 years and at least maintaining a margin of 7%–8% in the short term for the current financial year and improvement thereafter, according to the company's FY23 annual report.
