The Textile Market Continues to Face Weak Demand

LVIV, UKRAINE - FEBRUARY 21: Seamstress Iryna Seh sews zippers on to Ukrainian military jackets at a factory owned by Ukrvyisktorg, a Ukrainian company that specializes in military clothing, on February 21, 2023 in Lviv, Ukraine. Ukrvyisktorg originally had a production facility in Kramatorsk in eastern Ukraine but moved the equipment to Lviv due to the war. The Lviv factory employs a number of refugees from eastern Ukraine. Millions of Ukrainians, mainly from the east where fighting is raging between Ukrainian and Russian armed forces, have fled to the relative safety of western Ukraine as well as abroad, including about 250,000 in the greater Lviv region. February 24 will mark the first anniversary of Russia's ongoing military invasion of Ukraine. (Photo by Sean Gallup/Getty Images)
