In 2023, the import of these textile garments to Germany stood at 16.18 million items. Forecasting from 2024 onwards, the data suggests a gradual but consistent decline.

Future trends to watch for include potential shifts in consumer preferences towards sustainable and locally-made textile products, which may further impact the import volumes. Technological advancements in textile production and potential regulatory changes can also play pivotal roles in shaping future demand and supply dynamics.
