- India has overtaken China to become the largest supplier of cotton products to the United States in 2025.
- India exported around 0.6 million tonnes of cotton products, while China’s exports declined to about 0.5 million tonnes due to high tariffs (10%–125%) and regulatory restrictions.
- US laws like the Uyghur Forced Labour Prevention Act (UFLPA) reduced dependence on Chinese imports and increased sourcing from India and other countries.
- The United States remains the world’s largest importer of cotton-based products like apparel and home textiles.
