In the first half of 2025, France’s home textile imports surged to an impressive $1.94 billion, marking a significant milestone in the sector’s growth. This increase highlights the country’s strong demand for textile products used in home furnishings, such as curtains, bed linens, and upholstery fabrics.
Leading Growth from Made-Ups
The driving force behind this import boom has been the category of made-ups, which encompasses finished textile products ready for use in homes. These products have shown the strongest growth compared to raw materials and semi-finished goods, underscoring the shift in consumer preferences towards more convenient and ready-to-use home textile solutions.
Key Factors Influencing the Rise
- Increased consumer spending on home décor and comfort.
- Growing popularity of premium and sustainable textiles.
- Recovery from supply chain disruptions experienced in previous years.
Outlook for the Textile Market
With the first half showing strong momentum, analysts predict continued growth in France’s home textile imports throughout 2025. The focus is expected to remain on high-quality and innovative textile products that cater to evolving home design trends.
