The import of greasy shorn wool to the UK shows a steady increase in the forecasted period from 2024 to 2028. The volume is set to rise from 20.355 million kilograms in 2024 to 21.843 million kilograms by 2028. As of 2023, the actual import data stood lower, indicating a positive trend in wool import growth. Year-on-year growth rates are seen as modest but consistent, slightly increasing each year.
Future trends to watch for include potential impacts from trade agreements post-Brexit, changes in global wool demand, and advances in sustainable wool production which might influence market dynamics. Shifts in global fashion trends could also affect demand for wool imports.
