In 2023, the re-import of not knitted or crocheted men's and boys' overcoats, capes, or cloaks of wool or fine animal hair to Italy was higher than the forecast for subsequent years. The data reflects a declining trend from 2024 to 2028. Specifically, the year-on-year decrease is projected to continue with an average annual decline of around 7.8% over the five-year period from 2024 to 2028.

Future trends to watch for:

Increasing sustainability and local production in the fashion industry, affecting re-import volumes.
Economic changes or new trade agreements within the EU that might influence import dynamics.
Consumer preference shifts potentially impacting demand for specific materials like wool.
