Full text | Abstract: Following Poland’s entry to the European Union, its domestic market has been integrated into the Single European Market. The Polish clothing industry has been seeking competitive advantages by reducing manufacturing costs and ensuring the high quality of its products, but also by expanding into foreign markets. The article analyses the volume of clothing exported by Polish manufacturers, their strong and weak points, as well as opportunities and threats to the enlargement of internal export activities on the European clothing market. |
