Starting at 38.522 million in 2024, the value is expected to decrease gradually each year, reaching 38.042 million by 2028. Assuming the data for 2023 was not provided, it is important to note that these figures reflect a consistent decline in imports.
The year-on-year percentage variations indicate minor decreases close to 0.3% annually, suggesting a diminishing interest or declining economic factors influencing this product category. The Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) over the period from 2024 to 2028 suggests a consistent downward trend.
Future trends to watch for include potential impacts of changes in consumer preferences towards sustainable or local products, fluctuations in global trade policies, and economic conditions that could influence Japan's reliance on imports of these garments.
