Peru's clothing exports to the United States reached $193 million between January and April 2016, a $7million increase from the same period in 2015. Peru–US bilateral trade figures reflect an upward trend in shipments to the North America.

Exports of cotton T-shirts for men went up by 8.1 per cent and those for women went up by 46.9 per cent. Shipments of cotton top tanks for women or girls went up by 105.3 per cent, as seen in the year's first four months. Shipments of woven or knitted top tanks went up by 41.4 per cent. Other products, such as cotton dresses for women, up by 51 per cent, also contributed to greater exports to the United States.

Likewise, growth was also experienced by other products made of synthetic fibers like shirts for men, women and children. Peru’s textile and clothing exports have grown by an average of 11 per cent per year in the last ten years, thanks in large part to sector-specific investments focused on output growth and modernization, an increased global demand due to the quality of the goods and speed of delivery; and, perhaps most significantly, increased trade preferences granted by the United States.
