The re-import of knitted or crocheted women's and girls' slips or petticoats of man-made fibre to China shows a declining trend over the coming years. The forecast indicates a steady decrease from 205.54 kilograms in 2024 to 165.35 kilograms in 2028. This represents a year-on-year decline of approximately 5%. This consistent downward trend could be attributed to factors such as changes in domestic demand or increased local production. In 2023, the actual volume stood at a similar level as 2024, suggesting stable conditions before the forecasted decline.
Future trends to watch for include potential shifts in consumer preferences towards more sustainable or natural materials, which might further impact the demand for man-made fibre garments. Additionally, changes in trade policies, global market dynamics, and local manufacturing capabilities could play significant roles in shaping the import volumes in subsequent years.
