Czech textile industry
Czech textile industry had established itself at the core of manufacturing in the Habsburg Austrian Empire. In the Czech Lands, textile production has always been traditionally more important than clothing production. Despite the ups and downs in the textile sector over the years, it plays an important role in Czech Republic. With the decline in supply during the period of communism, they improved the textile industry by stitching in their homes.
