In 2023, the import value of soaps for toilet use to Japan was recorded at 45.287 million USD. The forecast from 2024 to 2028 indicates a steady decline, beginning at 44.488 million USD in 2024 and decreasing to 41.499 million USD by 2028. This represents a year-on-year decrease in import value, with the most notable decrease likely seen between 2027 and 2028. The compound annual growth rate (CAGR) over this five-year period reflects a consistent downward trend, indicating a shrinking market for imported toilet soaps in Japan.
Future trends to watch for include potential shifts in consumer preferences toward more sustainable or locally produced soaps due to growing environmental concerns. Additionally, any significant changes in domestic soap production or import tariffs could further influence the import dynamics in the coming years.
