The import of knotted carpets of wool or fine animal hair to France was valued at 6.75 million USD in 2023. The forecasted data from 2024 suggests a consistent downward trend, with values decreasing year-on-year—12.5% in 2025, 24.0% in 2026, 31.0% in 2027, and 44.0% in 2028. Over the five-year period, the compound annual growth rate (CAGR) reflects a significant decline in imports.
Looking ahead, several future trends merit attention:
- Potential shifts in consumer preferences towards alternative flooring options or more sustainable materials.
- Changes in trade agreements or tariffs that could further impact the cost and volume of imports.
- The economic health of France, which may influence purchasing power and demand for luxury goods like knotted carpets.
