ISLAMABAD:
Majority of customers are interested in getting their hands on readymade stuff rather than tailor-made garments mainly to save time and avoid the hassle of repeated visits to shops for fitting trials, a report aired by a private news channel said on Friday.
The demand for readymade clothes has risen 80% to 90% in the last decade, the report said, despite high increases in the prices of tailoring.
An owner of a readymade garments shop said his shop receives a decent response from customers for both tailored and readymade clothes.
"Sales of readymade clothes at my shop have almost doubled this year," he said.
The shift towards readymade suits has attracted many textile companies, including exporters, towards the business of supplying clothes especially for the country's 'middle classes'.
