The forecast for the import of refillable pocket lighters and gas-fuelled to Canada shows a declining trend from 2024 to 2028, beginning at 1.38 million USD in 2024 and decreasing each subsequent year to 1.0655 million USD in 2028. This continued decrease indicates a year-on-year contraction over the period, reflecting a declining demand or market saturation. Unfortunately, as we are in 2024, no previous data from 2023 is available for immediate comparison to establish a calculated year-on-year percentage change or CAGR. Despite this, the pattern clearly delineates a progressive annual reduction.

Future trends to watch for include:

Consumer preference shifts towards more sustainable or alternative ignition products.
Potential regulatory changes impacting the import and sale of gas-fuelled lighters.
Technological advancements leading to product innovations that might rejuvenate demand.
Economic factors influencing disposable income and non-essential import choices.
