This thesis was written as part of a Bachelor Degree program for Laurea University of Applied Sciences. This research report examines current problems and factors faced by the Pakistani textile industry. The study was conducted at the macro level in order to analyze the overall situation in the Pakistani textile sector.
There was a need to understand the reasons for the collapse of the biggest sector of the country in terms of export and employment. Serious difficulties began in the beginning of 2010 when a shortage of gas and electricity was announced for a longer period than before. The subject of this thesis was decided while listening to news relating to the challenges faced by industrialists in the period 2010-2011.
A qualitative research approach has been used as the single approach for fact finding, as the basic aim of this research report is to understand the factors that affecting the textile industry at the macro level. During a personal visit to Pakistan, the researcher has conducted in-depth interviews with the owners of textile mills, corporate level personnel and an independent external audit firm.
In the theoretical section, the thesis discusses risk and risk analysis in the industry and the steps involved in the process of conducting the risk analysis. Most of the data has been drawn from the literature and the latest internet research articles.
