The import of artificial flowers, foliage, and fruit (except plastic) into the US reflects a consistent declining trend from 39.552 million kilograms in 2024 to 36.744 million kilograms in 2028, indicating a year-on-year decrease of about 2% on average. The market had noted a volume closer to these figures in 2023, affirming the ongoing decline. This decrease might be influenced by changing consumer preferences and increased domestic production capabilities.
Future trends to watch for:
- Sustainable alternatives or biodegradable products may gain ground impacting import volumes further.
- Potential shifts in global supply chains due to geopolitical factors could alter import dynamics.
