This research would be beneficial for textile market in such a way that it would give us idea about people perception towards Pakistani apparel brands and how much people associate it with their use. The research includes three product lines which are personal use, electronic and home durables. It would help us to figure out how we have to market those items which fall in these three categories. Either we have to consider the brand name or the country of origin to make positive consumer behavior.
