The forecast for the import of playing cards to Italy from 2024 to 2028 shows a slight downward trend. In 2024, the import volume is projected at 979.6 thousand kilograms, decreasing steadily each year to 971.34 thousand kilograms by 2028. Compared to 2023 figures, which stood slightly higher, the year-on-year variation indicates a gradual but small decline. The compound annual growth rate (CAGR) over the five-year period reflects a minimal negative growth.
Future trends to watch for include:
- Continued shifts in consumer leisure activities that could favor or disfavor physical card games.
- The potential impact of digital and electronic gaming alternatives, which may influence demand.
- Price and availability fluctuations of imported playing cards due to possible changes in trade policies and international shipping logistics.
