In 2023, Brazil's import of worn clothing and other worn articles stood at a certain level and is forecasted to steadily decline over the next five years. From 2024 to 2028, there is a consistent decrease in import value, dropping from 35.37 to 10.18 thousand US dollars. This represents a clear downward trend with substantial year-on-year reductions.
Key trends to observe for the future include:
- The impact of increasing local production of affordable clothing on import demand.
- Evolving fashion preferences towards new garments over second-hand items.
- The influence of economic policies and import tariffs on second-hand clothing.
