In 2023, Germany's import volume of not knitted or crocheted women's and girls' blouses and shirts of cotton stood at a level just slightly above 7.5 million kilograms. From 2024 onwards, a steady decrease is forecasted, with the volume expected to drop to about 6.39 million kilograms by 2028.

Year-on-year percentage change analysis reveals a downward trend: a slight decline of around 3-4% annually from 2024 to 2028. The compound annual growth rate (CAGR) over the five-year period is negative, reinforcing a consistent reduction in imports by volume across these years.

Future trends to watch for include:

Potential shifts in global cotton production affecting raw material availability and pricing.
Changes in consumer preferences, possibly shifting towards sustainably sourced or alternative materials.
Germany's economic conditions influencing overall import capabilities and consumer spending power on apparel.
