Pakistan's export to South Africa has been increasing to more than 8 percent on yearly basis for last two years. The major increase has been witnessed in textiles, leather, cement and sports sectors. Some more sectors like engineering goods, tractors, motorcycles, fruits and other food items have great un-tapped potential, as well.
