The forecast for the UK import of women's and girls' trousers and shorts made of wool or fine animal hair indicates a significant decline from 2024 to 2028. The import volume is expected to decrease by reverse exponential rates from 279.63 thousand kilograms in 2024 to just 3.89 thousand kilograms in 2028.
Year-on-year, the import volume is projected to fall consistently, reflecting a decline of approximately 25% from 2024 to 2025, followed by steeper reductions. This decline suggests a diminished demand or shifts in sourcing strategies for these products.
Looking ahead, key trends include potential shifts in consumer preference towards alternative fibers, increased local production, or changes in international trade regulations affecting imports of woolen garments. Monitoring these factors will be crucial for anticipating future market developments.
