In 2023, the import of worn clothing and other worn articles to Italy was approximately 44.515 million kilograms. Forecasts show a slight annual decrease in imports from 2024 to 2028, with a total reduction of less than 1% per year. The compound annual growth rate (CAGR) over this five-year period indicates a stable, marginal decline.
Future trends to watch include:
- The impact of sustainable fashion movements, potentially reducing demand for imported second-hand clothing.
- Changes in global trade policies or regulations that may affect import volumes.
