Summary
No clothes: Industry revenue is expected to fall in 2022-23 due to the cost-of-living crisis
Abstract
Clothing Manufacturing in Ireland
The Clothing Manufacturing industry has contended with severe external pressures for the best part of three decades with mounting expenses, relocation and competition. Recognising they would be unable to compete on price, Irish clothing manufacturers capitalise on their heritage and ethical brand stories. Despite this, clothing manufacturing revenue is expected to have fallen at a compound annual rate of 10.7% over the past five years.
Firms in this industry manufacture clothing from a wide range of materials. Products include ready-to-wear and made-to-measure clothing, workwear, and casual and formal apparel. Underwear and hosiery manufacturing is also included in the industry.
This report covers the scope, size, disposition and growth of the industry including the key sensitivities and success factors. Also included are five year industry forecasts, growth rates and an analysis of the industry key players and their market shares.
