In 2023, the unloaded international container transport volume of textiles and leather products in Germany stood at 6.0 thousand metric tons. Forecasts for 2024 to 2026 predict stability at this volume, followed by a decrease to 5.0 thousand metric tons for 2027 and 2028. This indicates a stable trend initially with an eventual decrease of 16.67% from 2026 to 2027.

Future trends to watch:

Potential impacts of international trade policies on import volumes.
Changes in consumer demand for textiles and leather products.
The influence of sustainability and circular economy initiatives on the market landscape.
