<strong>The</strong> <strong>textile</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>clothing</strong> <strong>sector</strong> <strong>is</strong> a <strong>cornerstone</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Latvian</strong><br />
industry, with deep roots in our culture. In the past, Latvia<br />
was one <strong>of</strong> the biggest manufacturers <strong>of</strong> fl ax in the world.<br />
<strong>The</strong>se <strong>textile</strong> traditions have developed over time, <strong>and</strong><br />
today we see a <strong>sector</strong> that <strong>is</strong> well-equipped with the<br />
latest technologies <strong>and</strong> knowhow.<br />
Latvia has in fact become a place where many wellknown<br />
European, Russian, <strong>and</strong> global br<strong>and</strong>s place their<br />
production for smaller orders that need fast turnaround,<br />
or that give preference to environmentally sound<br />
production. High quality <strong>and</strong> service-mindedness st<strong>and</strong><br />
out as the key reasons for doing business in Latvia.<br />
In 2011, the <strong>textile</strong> industry contributed 4.4% to the<br />
GDP <strong>of</strong> Latvia, reaching a turnover <strong>of</strong> EUR 460 million.<br />
Traditionally it <strong>is</strong> also a highly export-oriented <strong>sector</strong>, with<br />
70-80% <strong>of</strong> the output reaching foreign customers.<br />
It should be noted that Latvia also holds a position as a<br />
major lingerie-manufacturing center in Eastern Europe,<br />
with more than 50 producers located in the coastal<br />
city <strong>of</strong> Liepaja alone. Only France possesses a higher<br />
concentration <strong>of</strong> lingerie companies.<br />
Traditional knowledge <strong>and</strong> new technological skills<br />
are now being actively explored in the high-potential<br />
natural fi bers segment, where Latvia has a competitive<br />
advantage on the bas<strong>is</strong> <strong>of</strong> our h<strong>is</strong>tory, culture, <strong>and</strong><br />
mindset.<br />
Th<strong>is</strong> catalogue presents information on the most<br />
important companies operating in the <strong>sector</strong>. I<br />
am confi dent it will be <strong>of</strong> great value for creating<br />
new business connections with potential suppliers,<br />
d<strong>is</strong>tributors, designers, <strong>and</strong> companies seeking<br />
production facilities in the EU. <strong>The</strong> Investment <strong>and</strong><br />
Development Agency <strong>of</strong> Latvia (<strong>LIAA</strong>) will be glad<br />

Textile <strong>and</strong> Clothing<br />
Industry in Latvia<br />
For centuries, the <strong>textile</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>clothing</strong> <strong>sector</strong> has been<br />
one <strong>of</strong> the most important in the <strong>Latvian</strong> economy. It<br />
has very culturally signifi cant roots, mostly associated<br />
with natural materials, high quality, <strong>and</strong> a true-to-nature<br />
lifestyle <strong>and</strong> values. For centuries, <strong>textile</strong> products were<br />
also important export commodities in the context <strong>of</strong> the<br />
Hanseatic League <strong>and</strong> beyond.<br />
In the last century, Latvia was one <strong>of</strong> the most renowned<br />
fl ax exporters, with almost 40,000 ha <strong>of</strong> l<strong>and</strong> devoted<br />
to the cultivation <strong>of</strong> th<strong>is</strong> plant. Flax was the second<br />
most important income source in Latvia after timber.<br />
<strong>Latvian</strong> fl ax <strong>and</strong> hemp were associated with the highest<br />
st<strong>and</strong>ards <strong>of</strong> the time, as innovative <strong>and</strong> thorough control<br />
methods were used for ensuring the highest quality <strong>of</strong><br />
these fi bers.<br />
Linen <strong>is</strong> still an integral part <strong>of</strong> the <strong>Latvian</strong> <strong>textile</strong> industry,<br />
also contributing to niche products such as linen ropes<br />
or linen for technical use. Hemp <strong>is</strong> also regaining its status<br />
through the introduction <strong>of</strong> new insulating <strong>and</strong> other<br />
technical <strong>textile</strong> materials.<br />
TEXTILE INDUSTRY AT A GLANCE<br />
While home <strong>textile</strong>s from linen, such as tablecloths <strong>and</strong><br />
curtains, are very popular among the local population,<br />
the most exclusive linen accessories have been noticed<br />
by well-known international br<strong>and</strong>s <strong>and</strong> are now part <strong>of</strong><br />
their collections.<br />
Today, the <strong>textile</strong> <strong>sector</strong> <strong>is</strong> an important part <strong>of</strong> <strong>Latvian</strong><br />
industry, combining the best <strong>of</strong> traditional knowhow<br />
with industrial <strong>and</strong> technological knowledge. Th<strong>is</strong><br />
expert<strong>is</strong>e has led to the creation <strong>of</strong> high value-added<br />
products such as silver <strong>and</strong> amber threads.<br />
Around 12,000 people are employed in more than 700<br />
<strong>Latvian</strong> <strong>textile</strong> companies, mostly small <strong>and</strong> medium<br />
size. <strong>The</strong> <strong>sector</strong>’s contribution to the GDP <strong>is</strong> 4.4%. <strong>The</strong><br />
capital city <strong>of</strong> Riga takes the lead as far as workforce <strong>is</strong><br />
concerned, followed by the city <strong>of</strong> Liepaja. However,<br />
<strong>textile</strong> companies are d<strong>is</strong>tributed all around Latvia,<br />
unleashing the creativeness <strong>and</strong> inspiration <strong>of</strong> our<br />
people.<br />
<strong>The</strong> main <strong>textile</strong> industry sub-<strong>sector</strong>s are lingerie<br />
manufacturing, sewing, weaving, technical <strong>textile</strong><br />
manufacturing, <strong>and</strong> art<strong>is</strong>an <strong>textile</strong> production. <strong>The</strong><br />
industry <strong>is</strong> highly export-oriented, particularly the lingerie<br />
segment.<br />

<strong>The</strong> competitive advantages for cooperation with <strong>Latvian</strong><br />
<strong>textile</strong> companies are numerous, including short lead<br />
times, small <strong>and</strong> diversifi ed production volumes, as<br />
well as price <strong>and</strong> quality ratio. Reliability <strong>and</strong> long-term<br />
mutually benefi cial partnerships have allowed the <strong>sector</strong><br />
to maintain its positions in the currently highly volatile<br />
market.<br />
<strong>The</strong> industry <strong>is</strong> dominated by sewing companies that<br />
act as outsourced production for EU br<strong>and</strong>s. Th<strong>is</strong> <strong>is</strong><br />
very convenient, as production <strong>and</strong> delivery times are<br />
short <strong>and</strong> technical capabilities are advanced – from<br />
embroidery <strong>and</strong> laser cutting to waterpro<strong>of</strong>-garment<br />
production. <strong>Latvian</strong> sewing companies provide<br />
customized services, including pattern <strong>and</strong> other design<br />
services.<br />
However, there are also a number <strong>of</strong> local small <strong>and</strong><br />
medium size companies that are working on their<br />
own jersey, knitwear, <strong>and</strong> other material collections,<br />
bringing forward the idea <strong>of</strong> natural <strong>and</strong> ecological<br />

4<br />
<strong>clothing</strong>. Similar philosophies <strong>and</strong> attitudes toward<br />
living can be found in the numerous workshops <strong>of</strong><br />
home <strong>textile</strong> companies – from small to large. In fact,<br />
the recent Environmental Performance Index report by<br />
Yale <strong>and</strong> Columbia Universities, which studied more<br />
than 130 countries, ranked Latvia the second most<br />
environmentally friendly nation in the world.<br />
Many world-renowned automotive <strong>and</strong> airspace<br />
companies have benefi ted from Latvia’s competence<br />
in glass fi ber production. In th<strong>is</strong> fi eld, Latvia has several<br />
highly innovative companies with great expansion<br />
potential.<br />
Every year, local small <strong>and</strong> medium companies present<br />
new adult <strong>and</strong> children’s fashion, as well as home <strong>textile</strong><br />
design collections admired by customers around the<br />
globe. <strong>Latvian</strong> fashion designers are gaining more<br />
international recognition by actively participating in<br />
prestigious competitions from Par<strong>is</strong> to Tokyo, as well as by<br />
attending numerous design-<strong>clothing</strong> trade fairs.<br />
Another integral part <strong>of</strong> <strong>textile</strong> production in Latvia<br />
<strong>is</strong> lingerie manufacturing. Th<strong>is</strong> <strong>is</strong> a very character<strong>is</strong>tic<br />
feature, especially in the seaside city <strong>of</strong> Liepaja, which<br />
alone hosts more than 50 manufacturers. <strong>The</strong>ir creativity<br />
<strong>and</strong> sense <strong>of</strong> feminine beauty can be appreciated in<br />
many international fairs across Europe <strong>and</strong> Russia. <strong>Latvian</strong><br />
lingerie manufacturers have won several contests for<br />
representing the best fashion trends in th<strong>is</strong> industry.<br />
It should be mentioned that the number <strong>of</strong> lingerie<br />
companies in Latvia <strong>is</strong> considerable; elsewhere in Europe,<br />
only France has a higher concentration <strong>of</strong> lingerie<br />
manufacturers.<br />
<strong>The</strong>re are two associations uniting <strong>Latvian</strong> <strong>textile</strong><br />
producers: the Association <strong>of</strong> <strong>Latvian</strong> Textile <strong>and</strong><br />
Clothing Industry <strong>and</strong> the Association <strong>of</strong> <strong>Latvian</strong><br />
Lingerie Manufacturers (LATVERA). <strong>The</strong> industry <strong>is</strong> also<br />
supported by several education institutions: the Riga<br />
School <strong>of</strong> Arts <strong>and</strong> Crafts, <strong>Latvian</strong> Academy <strong>of</strong> Arts, <strong>and</strong><br />
the Textiles Faculty <strong>of</strong> Riga Technical University, as well<br />
as several vocational education institutions. Pr<strong>of</strong>essional<br />
institutions educate 8% <strong>of</strong> new employees, from tailors,<br />
h<strong>and</strong>craftsmen, <strong>and</strong> leather designers to <strong>clothing</strong> <strong>and</strong><br />
<strong>textile</strong> technolog<strong>is</strong>ts.<br />
<strong>The</strong> <strong>sector</strong> <strong>is</strong> currently following the trends in European<br />
industry, <strong>and</strong> developments are mostly seen in technical<br />
natural fi ber applications, as well as in innovative<br />
solutions for non-wovens in automotive, medical,<br />
<strong>and</strong> other <strong>sector</strong>s. Intelligent <strong>textile</strong> <strong>and</strong> garment<br />
development <strong>is</strong> closely studied by our research institutes<br />
<strong>and</strong> designers, leading to creative products addressing<br />
new customer needs. Being well-establ<strong>is</strong>hed, the <strong>sector</strong><br />
<strong>is</strong> continuously attracting new investment for upgrading<br />
ex<strong>is</strong>ting <strong>and</strong> creating new production plants.<br />
TEXTILE INDUSTRY STATISTICS<br />
Without a doubt, the major market for <strong>Latvian</strong> <strong>textile</strong><br />
goods <strong>is</strong> the EU, where our most important partners are<br />
the Baltic <strong>and</strong> Sc<strong>and</strong>inavian countries. However, with<br />
every passing year, our eastern partners – Russia, Ukraine,<br />
<strong>and</strong> Belarus – are exp<strong>and</strong>ing their contribution to the<br />
turnover <strong>of</strong> the <strong>sector</strong>.<br />
<strong>The</strong> <strong>textile</strong> products exported to the west are mostly<br />
under private labels. Textile production outsourcing in<br />
Latvia <strong>is</strong> an integral part <strong>of</strong> the business.<br />
At the same time, exports to Russia <strong>and</strong> CIS mostly<br />
feature locally designed fashion <strong>and</strong> lingerie collections,<br />
which have an esteemed reputation <strong>and</strong> appeal for<br />
highly dem<strong>and</strong>ing clientele.<br />

Obsessed with quality, our producers acquire only the<br />
best raw materials imported mainly from Italy, Pol<strong>and</strong>,<br />
Germany, <strong>and</strong> Lithuania. <strong>The</strong>se are later transformed into<br />
ready-made garments <strong>and</strong> other <strong>textile</strong> articles. <strong>The</strong> latest<br />
trends also show the willingness <strong>and</strong> ability <strong>of</strong> <strong>Latvian</strong><br />
companies to acquire manufacturing plants in the EU.<br />
Results from the last two years show great success, as<br />
the industry has reached the levels <strong>of</strong> 2008, gaining the<br />
highest turnover in the last 20 years. Export markets<br />
have grown steadily, exp<strong>and</strong>ing to 105 countries, an<br />
increase <strong>of</strong> 10% compared to 2008. <strong>The</strong> market <strong>is</strong> welldiversifi<br />
ed, as 95% <strong>of</strong> the goods produced are l<strong>and</strong>ing in<br />
21 countries.<br />

<strong>The</strong> <strong>sector</strong> has seen signifi cant investment in<br />
technologies <strong>and</strong> equipment, especially in the period<br />
2000-2004. Textile <strong>and</strong> garment companies continuously<br />
update <strong>and</strong> replace their equipment in order to be<br />
productive, cost-effi cient, <strong>and</strong> thereby competitive.<br />
<strong>The</strong> last three years have shown a stable increase in<br />

As described above, our strengths in production result<br />
in high added-value export products such as underwear,<br />
technical <strong>textile</strong>, knitted <strong>and</strong> crocheted garments, work<br />
wear, <strong>and</strong> hosiery.<br />
<strong>The</strong> <strong>Latvian</strong> domestic market <strong>is</strong> small but solid, <strong>and</strong><br />
provides an innovative platform from which our<br />
producers are launching to foreign markets. Latvia <strong>is</strong><br />
a bridge that connects east with west – th<strong>is</strong> <strong>is</strong> one <strong>of</strong><br />
country’s greatest strengths, which certainly contributes<br />
to the continued growth <strong>of</strong> the <strong>textile</strong> <strong>sector</strong>.<br />

<strong>The</strong> m<strong>is</strong>sion <strong>of</strong> the Investment <strong>and</strong> Development Agency <strong>of</strong> Latvia (<strong>LIAA</strong>) <strong>is</strong> to promote<br />
growth <strong>of</strong> the economy <strong>of</strong> Latvia. Accordingly, the objective <strong>of</strong> <strong>LIAA</strong> <strong>is</strong> to promote<br />
business development by facilitating increased foreign investment, while elevating the<br />
competitiveness <strong>of</strong> <strong>Latvian</strong> entrepreneurs in both domestic <strong>and</strong> foreign markets.<br />
With almost 20 years <strong>of</strong> experience in attracting <strong>of</strong> foreign direct investment to Latvia <strong>and</strong><br />
promoting foreign trade, the Agency has worked continually to improve the business<br />
environment <strong>and</strong> provide services appropriate to the needs <strong>of</strong> business.<br />
Following Latvia’s accession to the EU in 2004, the Agency needed to adopt new methods<br />
<strong>and</strong> tools, including the eff ective util<strong>is</strong>ation <strong>of</strong> resources from EU Structural funds. Today,<br />
<strong>LIAA</strong> <strong>of</strong>f ers an integrated solution – it supports companies in Latvia trading internationally<br />
as well as overseas businesses seeking partners or locations in Latvia <strong>and</strong> admin<strong>is</strong>ters state<br />
support programmes for entrepreneurs co-fi nanced from EU Structural funds.<br />
To ensure high quality communications with customers the Agency has representative<br />
<strong>of</strong>fi ces in Minsk (Belarus), Beijing (China), Copenhagen (Denmark), Par<strong>is</strong> (France), Berlin<br />
(Germany), Tokyo (Japan), Vilnius (Lithuania), <strong>The</strong> Hague (the Netherl<strong>and</strong>s), Oslo (Norway),<br />
Warsaw (Pol<strong>and</strong>), Moscow (Russia), Stockholm (Sweden), London (UK) <strong>and</strong> Kiev (Ukraine).<br />
An ability to anticipate the rapidly changing needs <strong>of</strong> businesses <strong>and</strong> markets by <strong>of</strong>f ering<br />
new services character<strong>is</strong>es the Agency’s own competitiveness, built on the knowledge <strong>and</strong><br />
competencies <strong>of</strong> our experienced special<strong>is</strong>ts. <strong>LIAA</strong> pays close attention to the quality <strong>of</strong> its<br />
own performance, comparing it with world best practices, <strong>and</strong> subsequently introducing<br />
new services <strong>and</strong> solutions for our customers.<br />
In recognition <strong>of</strong> <strong>LIAA</strong>’s competitive <strong>and</strong> high quality services, the Agency was recently<br />
named one <strong>of</strong> the top 10 performing national Investment Promotion Intermediaries (IPIs) in<br />
the world, according to the Global Investment Promotion Benchmarking publ<strong>is</strong>hed by the<br />
World Bank. <strong>LIAA</strong> fi n<strong>is</strong>hed 7th in a fi erce competition <strong>of</strong> 213 investment promotion agencies.<br />
We look forward to helping your company succeed in Latvia!
