The import of machinery for making or repairing footwear to Germany is forecasted to decline from 2024 through 2028, with values dropping from 215.79 thousand kilograms in 2024 to 166.23 thousand kilograms in 2028. The year-on-year variations indicate a consistent decrease over these years. If we look back to 2023, Germany might have experienced a significant rise or a more stable import volume, given the forecasted decline commencing in 2024.

Future trends to watch for:

Technological advancements in local footwear production potentially reducing reliance on imports.
Economic factors affecting domestic production costs and therefore import needs for machinery.
Trade policies influencing machinery import dynamics from key countries.
