From 2024 to 2028, China's forecasted import of cutlery not in sets plated with precious metal exhibits a consistent decline from 5.92 thousand kilograms to 1.92 thousand kilograms. This represents a significant yearly decrease, with a notable average compound annual growth rate (CAGR) showing a negative trend. Compared to 2023, where the volume was marginally higher, the forecast highlights a consistent contraction in imports year-on-year.
