As of 2023, France imported automatic washing machines with a dry capacity not exceeding 10 kg valued at 2.6 million. From 2024 onwards, forecasts indicate a slight decline in imports: 2.54 million in 2024, decreasing gradually to 2.4872 million by 2028. The year-on-year growth from 2024 onwards shows a steady decline approximately averaging close to 0.5% annually. This indicates a stabilizing or shrinking market over the five-year forecasted period.
Future trends to watch include technological advancements in eco-friendly and energy-efficient models, which could influence consumer demand. Changes in European Union trade policies due to environmental regulations might also impact import patterns and domestic production preferences.
