Between 2013 and 2023, the per capita volume of women's or girls' jerseys, pullovers, sweatshirts, waistcoats, and cardigans made of man-made fibers in Austria demonstrated fluctuating growth. The market reached a high point in 2018 with 1.85 units per capita before declining notably in 2020 to 1.46 units, likely due to pandemic-related factors. By 2023, the market recovered to stabilize at 1.77 units, the same as in 2021 and 2022.
Key variations to note include a significant drop in 2020 (-15.6% from 2019) and a strong rebound in 2021 (+21.2% from 2020). The five-year CAGR from 2018 to 2023 was stable, indicating a balanced recovery post-COVID disruptions.
Future trends to watch for:
- Increasing emphasis on sustainable and eco-friendly man-made fibers could shift consumption patterns.
- The influence of fast fashion trends compounded by digital marketing may drive increased per capita volume.
- Potential economic fluctuations and consumer behavior changes due to geopolitical factors may impact market size.
