Abstract:
North Carolina textile and furniture industries are competing with low-cost imports from Asia. As the state’s largest manufacturing employer, the textile industry’s future is directly tied in with the economic future of North Carolina. The trade deficit has accounted for textile-related industry plant closings and permanent employee layoffs.
