New sectoral profiles offer insights into trade linkages within manufacturing industries

The new WTO Global Value Chains (GVCs) Sectoral Profiles provide insights into the interdependence of economies and industries in manufacturing supply chains. The first two profiles focus on the food and beverage sector and the textiles and clothing sector, based on value-added indicators for goods and services in over 70 economies. The profiles are complemented by the “GVC Dashboard,” an interactive virtual platform which presents dynamic graphs on GVC trade.
