In 2024, the fur apparel sector in France is forecast to have 164 employees, a slight decrease from previous years, with projections continuing to decline gradually to 158 employees by 2028. This indicates a shrinking workforce with a nearly balanced reduction of about 0.6% year-on-year for the forecasted period. This consistent decrease highlights a downsizing trend in the sector.

Future trends to watch include:

Possible shifts towards sustainable and ethical fashion, potentially affecting demand in the fur industry.
Emerging consumer preferences and regulatory changes that could impact workforce needs.
Automation and technological advancements that might further influence employment in this sector.
