The forecast for re-imports of knitted or crocheted pullovers and cardigans of wool or fine animal hair to France indicates a significant declining trend from 2024 to 2028. Starting at 8.18 thousand kilograms in 2024, the volume is expected to decrease annually, reaching 1.32 thousand kilograms by 2028. This represents a sharp year-on-year decline, averaging notably each year. Compared to 2023, when the volume was higher, the compounded annual growth rate (CAGR) signifies a substantial reduction in re-import volumes over the next five years.
Looking forward, it is essential to monitor factors like changes in domestic production capabilities, shifts in consumer preferences towards sustainable fashion, and potential changes in trade policies. These aspects could further influence the demand and re-imports of these garments in France. The market might also be affected by advancements in textile recycling and innovations in the wool industry.
