The 2023 data reveals Croatia as the leader in European sold production of knitted or crocheted garments, followed by Spain and Bulgaria, which showed robust growth at 8.17% year-on-year. Conversely, Italy and Romania experienced significant declines, recording decreases of -13.38% and -12.19%, respectively. Serbia's remarkable 34.33% increase suggests a rising production capacity, while Poland and Greece also showed positive trends. Western countries like France and Germany posted marginal or negative growth, reflecting mature markets.
Future trends to watch include the potential for Eastern European countries to capitalize on increased production capabilities, driven by cost advantages and improved infrastructure. The sustainability movement and technological advancements in textiles may also influence production trends, with a growing consumer preference for eco-friendly garments likely to shape future outputs across the continent.
