From 2023 to 2024, there was an as yet unspecified change. The consistent annual decrease in imports indicates a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) that highlights a downward trajectory over the five-year period.
Future trends to watch for include:
- Global trade dynamics affecting base metal supply chains
- Shifts in domestic production capabilities
- Changes in consumer preferences towards sustainable materials
- The impact of evolving economic policies on import tariffs and regulations
