In 2023, the import volume of furniture designed to receive refrigerating or freezing equipment to France reached approximately 570.5 thousand kilograms. Forecasted data from 2024 onwards indicates a consistent decline year-on-year. Imports are expected to reduce by 8.66% in 2024, followed by a 9.42% decrease in 2025, 9.28% in 2026, 10.02% in 2027, and finally 10.93% in 2028. The Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) over these five years suggests an average decline of 9.66% per year.
Future trends to watch include:
- Potential shifts in domestic manufacturing, which could reduce dependency on imports.
- Changes in regulations affecting the design and use of refrigeration furniture.
- Technological innovations that might impact the demand or supply dynamics.
- Economic factors influencing broader trade patterns in the European Union.
