The import of worked monumental or building stone (excluding granite or slate, tiles) to France is forecasted to show modest growth from 2024 to 2028, increasing from 111.69 million kilograms to 114.44 million kilograms. Compared to 2023, where the actual data stood at 111.00 million kilograms, this represents a gradual upward trend. Over the forecast period, the average year-on-year growth in imports is observed to be around 0.6%.
