In 2023, Japan imported 156.25 thousand kilograms of knitted or crocheted women's and girls' jackets and blazers made of cotton. The forecast for 2024 shows a decrease to 136.95 thousand kilograms. Subsequent years reflect a steady decline: 117.57 in 2025, 98.58 in 2026, 79.97 in 2027, and 61.73 in 2028. This trajectory indicates a notable downward trend, with a significant annual average decline projected over the five-year period.
Future trends to watch include:
- Potential shifts in fashion trends influencing demand.
- Impact of economic conditions on consumer purchasing power.
- Trade policies affecting import dynamics.
- Technological advances in garment production affecting costs and imports.
