The import of women's and girls' anoraks made of wool or fine animal hair to the UK is projected to decline from $6.8669 million in 2024 to $5.6705 million by 2028. This represents a year-on-year decrease of approximately 4.5%. The compound annual growth rate (CAGR) over the five-year forecast period is projected to be negative, implying a continued downtrend.
Future trends to watch for include:
- Changes in consumer preferences towards sustainable and ethical fashion, impacting demand.
- Currency fluctuations and their effect on import costs.
- Trade policy adjustments post-Brexit that may influence import dynamics.
- Emerging competition from synthetic materials in outerwear.
