Besides other industries, the chemical sector is heavily dependent on imports with annual imports of around USD 6 Billion. Country needs to urgently diversify its exports beyond textiles and also needs to reduce reliance on imports. The Government of Pakistan is ensuring a favourable regulatory environment to increase export base of the country.
