Abstract

The export sector plays a crucial role in Pakistan’s economy, driving GDP, industrial growth, and foreign exchange revenues. However, Pakistan’s export performance faces significant challenges, including over-reliance on textiles, insufficient diversification, and structural inefficiencies. This paper explores the factors limiting growth, such as regulatory bottlenecks, poor infrastructure, and limited value addition. It identifies promising sectors like IT, pharmaceuticals, and agriculture-based products, which could boost export revenues if developed effectively. To overcome these challenges, a comprehensive policy framework focused on export diversification, infrastructure improvement, and market expansion is necessary. The paper offers actionable recommendations, drawing on international best practices, to modernize Pakistan’s export sector, enhance competitiveness, and foster sustainable economic growth. The findings highlight the importance of strategic interventions to transform the sector into a key driver of economic development.
