In 2023, the import volume of photo film in rolls of 16-35 mm width and exceeding 30 m in length to Germany stood at 7.6 thousand kilograms. The forecast from 2024 to 2028 shows a notable decline, with imports dropping from 5.9 to 0.59861 thousand kilograms. This translates to an average annual decrease (CAGR) of approximately 30.6%. Year-on-year analysis reveals a consistent percentage decrease, indicating a downward trend in demand or shifts to alternative technologies or formats in the German market.
Looking ahead, key trends to monitor include the potential rise of digital alternatives to traditional photo film, which could further pressurize import volumes. Economic factors, technological advancements, and changes in consumer preferences towards digital formats could accelerate this trend.
