Brazil has been an important net exporter of made-ups in early 2006.

But Brazil's imports on the other hand have almost doubled.

Surge in imports is recorded from the United States and Honduras.

China was the second largest source of made-up imports into Brazil in 2005.

Honduras overtook Chinese imports during January to February 2006 period.

Import rise from the United States and Honduras overtaking those from China was due to acquisition of Springs Mills by a Brazilian corporation.

Springs Mills is one of the largest home textile groups.

The United States is also the largest consumer of Brazilian made-up exports with almost 70 percent of exports for January through February period.

January-February 2006 period has seen made-up exports reach 11,116,776 kilograms, registering a rise of 3.6 percent year-on-year.

The United States with export volume of 7,745,978 kilograms became the top destination representing a rise of 7.9 percent.

Argentina with an export volume of 1,110,275 kilograms was second largest export destination.

Exports during the same period soared 76.6 percent to 4,004,149 kilograms.

The United States with shipments of 1,463,796 kilograms representing an 88.2 percent year on year increase, provided 36.5 percent of all imports.

Honduran shipments exported a record 787 percent surge with export volume of 658,154 kilograms, registering almost similar volume as that of 2005.

China and Portugal were other top suppliers.
