USFIA Advocacy Priority: Supporting Sourcing from Developing Countries

The United States Fashion Industry Association (USFIA) supports policies and agreements to encourage sourcing from developing countries. One major priority is expanding trade with the African Growth and Opportunity Act (AGOA) countries, as well as Nepal. USFIA works with the Administration, Congress, and USAID, among other organizations, to promote and enhance these programs.

Below, you’ll find some of USFIA’s recent advocacy activities to support sourcing from developing countries.
