The import of knitted or crocheted hosiery of cotton to Germany is forecasted to increase modestly from 40.4 million kilograms in 2024 to 41.57 million kilograms in 2028. This data suggests an average annual growth rate (CAGR) of approximately 0.72% over the 5-year period. Compared to 2023, when the imports stood at an estimated 40 million kilograms, the year 2024 reflects a positive growth of around 1%. Continuation of this upward trend is expected year-on-year.
Future trends to watch include potential impacts from shifts in global trade policies, supply chain dynamics, and consumer preferences towards sustainable materials, which could all influence the volume and nature of hosiery imports in the upcoming years.
