In 2023, Serbia led Europe's production of non-knitted women's and girls' textile garments, capturing the largest market share at 45.87%. Romania and Bosnia and Herzegovina followed with 26.93% and 8.46%, respectively. A notable decline was seen across major producers, including Serbia (-6.02%) and Romania (-3.97%), with more significant plunges for Italy and Slovenia, at -37.05% and -42.77%. A few countries showed resilience, like Estonia and Finland, with growth of 15.7% and 7.25%, respectively.
Future trends suggest a continued contraction in traditional European production hubs, driven by increased offshoring and competition from low-cost markets. Producers may need to invest in innovation and sustainable practices to regain ground. Monitoring changes in fashion trends and consumer preferences will be crucial for adapting production strategies.
