Developed countries have been greatly known for helping the less fortunate countries, the so called third world countries; they help the countries in different perspectives including helping them build infrastructure, importing modern technology, loans, grants and donations. The donations include house hold items and clothes. These clothing donation PA greatly aid the less fortunate especially clothes which is a major basic commodity for people.

Agencies which collect these clothing are led by greed-driven people who instead of giving them to the less fortunate in the country they sell these cloths. African market is the most eyed source of income to these money lovers who sell them at a low cost but sell as much tones as possible hence bringing forth reputable profits. The reason behind this is because many Africans live a hand to mouth lifestyle hence cannot afford new shipped clothes which are costly.

Africa is popularly known by its good appetite for the less expensive commodities, second hand clothes being one of the commodities which are on high demand. Nearly everyone wears these kinds of clothing since some are of high quality though they are not new. Since everyone can afford this kind of clothing, they really sell more than hot cakes as rated.

This kind of business brings more good harm than good to the economy of the third world countries, though the country earns taxation income when these garments are shipped in other demerits follow. Loss of jobs to workers in local production firms, small-scale producers lose their market and so on. These demerits bite hard the economy and its growth declines.

There are major commodities which are exported like coffee, tea and so on though there are also minor commodities which scales the economy rate at a higher level, the items include locally made clothes which are beautifully designed and attracts everyones eyes. They include the Maasai-Shukas which normally are popular in Kenya, this patrol community has the pride of their clothes.

Textile industries collapse due to low market forces hence end up sending the workers home since the products they make are no longer marketable. When jobs are lost the workers end up being a security threat since robbery increases at a higher rate. Families of people who are employed by the textile firms ends up lacking basic needs and in this case they become beggars.

Firms which donate these clothes are like Salvation Army make things clear in their website that they do sell these clothes for the good will. Money collected in this trade does help greatly for the smooth running of the organization. It is used to pay the workers and help in shipping of the clothes to Africa and other continents.

Developing countries government should come up with rules to scrap exit of local garments. This includes reducing the tax rate of the local industries and taxing the imported cloths. These steps will help the country conquer in matters of exporting local clothes and economy will incline.
