In 2023, Brazil's imports of hand-made rugs, such as Kelem and Schumacks, were strong. However, from 2024 onwards, the forecasted import volumes are set to decline each year through 2028, indicating a consistent downward trend.
The year-on-year percentage change from 2024 to 2028 shows a negative progression, with imports falling by an average rate of approximately 10% annually, signalizing a shift in market dynamics.
Key future trends to monitor include potential changes in consumer preferences towards machine-made options, fluctuations in global commodity prices affecting raw materials, and any trade policy adjustments that could alter import behavior in Brazil.
