Import of worn clothing and other worn articles to Japan is projected to rise steadily from 2024 to 2028, with values increasing from $54.163 million to $59.089 million. This growth reflects a consistent year-on-year increase of approximately 2-3%. The CAGR over these five years is expected to be around 2.2%, indicating modest but stable growth.

Future trends to watch for:

Sustainability and circular economy initiatives influencing consumer behavior and potentially increasing demand for used clothing.
Evolving fashion trends and consumer preferences towards vintage or second-hand apparel.
Trade policy changes impacting import regulations or tariffs.
