Pakistan’s leather sector exports for the month of May increased by 15.9% and took the total for the first 11 months of the financial year ending June 30 to more than $1 billion.

May’s figure of $103.6 million was nearly 32% higher than the figure for May 2010 according to data released by the government’s Federal Bureau of Statistics.

During May 2011, the country exported finished leather worth $50.1 million, leathergoods with a value of $43.6 million and footwear with a value just under $10 million. This took the total for the first 11 months of the financial year, which runs from July to June in Pakistan, to just over $1 billion, which compares to $793.4 million for the first 11 months of the previous financial year.
