The earnings per shirt of the
Worker in the garment factory is 15 per shirt.
Garment exporter is 100 per shirt.

By looking at the above figures we find that the worker who contributes maximum earns very less whereas exporter and businessmen earns a good amount.
2.
More women are employed in the Impex garment factory because women are hard working, they work patiently and complete the task dutifully.
3.
If weavers were to buy yarn on their own and sell cloth, they would for sure earn more because in this case they would purchase yarn at lowest rates and would sell cloth
at the highest possible rate. The middlemen (i.e.) trader will get removed from chain and hence, it will be weaver who would earn all the profit.

No person gains equally in the market. The foreign businessmen earned huge profits followed by garment exporter, merchant and traders. The small cotton farmer, weaver and factory worker earned so little so that they can't even fulfil their day-to-day requirements. Though democracy is all about getting a fair wage in market, this is not the case in reality.
It is important for families to earn enough so that they can think of themselves as equal to others.
7.
The cloth is supplied to a garment-exporting factory by the Erode merchant, which is used to make shirts. The shirts will then be exported to the foreign buyers. Foreign buyers include the businessmen from US and Europe. They run a chain of stores on their own terms. They demand low prices from the supplier, high standards of quality and timely delivery. No defects or delay is entertained by the buyers. Hence, exporter puts all his efforts to fulfil the demands of foreign buyers.
The pressure from buyers results in the following
(i) Cutting costs by garment factories.
(ii) Workers are forced to work maximum at lowest possible wages.
(iii) Maximisation of profit.
(iv) Supply of garments to foreign buyers at a cheap price.
