Brazil has the seventh largest economy in the world, and in South America, it has the top economy, making the country the perfect setting for opportunities in the textile industry. The combinations of a great economy, multiple market demands, and diverse markets, demonstrate the potential that Brazil maintains. The amount of investment put into the textile industry in 2012 alone and into expanding and modernizing textile production is equal to $1.9 billion. With the latter figure in mind, it is easy to see the 7.3 percent growth over 2011 figures.
