According to Pakistan Bureau of Statistics, in the month of August 2024, the exports reached 5.1 billion dollars showing an increase of 620 million dollar.

The increase in exports also resulted in decline of country’s trade deficit from 3.751 billion dollar to 3.6 billion dollar, recording a decrease of 4.2 percent.

Imports of high-duty items such as vehicles, home appliances, and other consumer goods including garments, fabrics and footwear fell by 1.3 percent annually during the last month.
