The import of frames and mountings for spectacles, except plastic, to Japan is forecasted to decrease from 199.48 thousand kilograms in 2024 to 164.41 thousand kilograms by 2028. This consistent decline reflects a negative Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) over the five-year period. Notably, the year-on-year variation indicates a steady decrease in imports, underscoring a downward trend in demand or availability, compared to prior years' actual data.
Future trends to watch for include shifts in consumer preferences towards more sustainable materials, changes in domestic production capabilities, and international trade policies impacting import dynamics. Monitoring these factors will provide insights into potential market recovery or further declines beyond 2028.
