The forecast indicates a gradual increase in the import of water-skis, surf-boards, and other watersport equipment to the UK, with a steady rise from 3.9454 million kilograms in 2024 to 4.1829 million kilograms in 2028. This represents a moderate year-on-year growth rate for the forecasted period. Unfortunately, the data for the actual volume in 2023 is not provided, hence the exact variations over the past years or the Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) cannot be determined.
Future trends to watch for include:
- Potential impact of climate change on water sports activity levels in the UK.
- Changes in consumer preferences and technological advances in water sports equipment.
- Trade policies and tariffs that could affect import volumes and prices.
- Expansion of domestic production capabilities reducing import reliance.
