of financial management it means devoting more resources to developing of the new brands and promoting them wisely on the internal market. It may also mean looking not for average customers but for specific clients that are interested in the product.
Ukraine cannot boast a developed supporting sub-industry that produces all major raw materials for textile industry. Therefore, expansion of textile industry can be achieved mainly at the expense of imports of raw materials. This goal does not seem very realistic on the current stage (especially if you are thinking about fast growth in the industry).
Very important for financial health of the companies is the ability to use debt and public financing effectively. Many producers in Ukraine simply do not know how to do this and/or are too afraid to be involved in any financial procedures. This situation is even more complicated by the attempts of many enterprises to simply keep afloat. Therefore, many companies have more ‘urgent’ issues to take care of.
Due to opening opportunities (rising population incomes, consumers' preferences switch towards high quality clothing, etc) Ukraine has to spread the knowledge on Ukrainian products and design among consumers and related businesses to fill up the market.
But until textile producers turn their minds to the problems mentioned above the problems and prospects of textile industry in Ukraine look somewhat murky. And it is obvious the plausible assumption is that this process may take a while until it yields some positive results.
