China continues to dominate the global import of greasy shorn wool with an 81.04% share, reflecting a 2.41% year-on-year increase. Italy and the Czech Republic are the next largest importers, though both have seen slight decreases, at -1.0% and -2.1% respectively. Countries like Kazakhstan (137.55%) and Tanzania (82.53%) have shown significant growth in their import shares, albeit from very small bases. Conversely, Belarus and Norway experienced substantial declines with -24.1% and -25.01% respectively. Over the last five years, a slight downward trend has been noted in some European countries' shares, while emerging markets show potential growth.
Looking ahead, potential future trends to watch include continued dominance by China, growth in emerging markets such as Kazakhstan and Tanzania, and possible further declines in European imports. The sustainability trend and global economic conditions could significantly influence these patterns.
