Earlier Report Observations

Between 2018 and 2020, import volumes for men's woven swimwear into Bosnia and Herzegovina declined from 68.9 thousand units to 41.2 thousand units, while exports fell from 9.2 thousand units to 1.5 thousand units. From 2021 to 2024, the market volume showed considerable movement, reaching 147 thousand units in 2021, then contracting to 103.2 thousand units in 2022 and 69 thousand units in 2023, before recovering to 97.4 thousand units in 2024.

Domestic production collapsed over this period, dropping from 89.3 thousand units in 2021 to 35.2 thousand units in 2022 and 24.1 thousand units in 2023, before halting entirely in 2024. This decline in local output was counterbalanced by a strong rise in imports, which grew from 61.6 thousand units in 2021 to 120 thousand units in 2024, maintaining market supply. Exports saw a notable spike to 39.5 thousand units in 2023 before moderating.

For 2025, import and export volumes are recorded at 94.4 thousand units and 18.4 thousand units, respectively. The market enters a new phase with the European Union's introduction of extended producer responsibility rules for textiles, effective from 2025, which require digital product passports and full lifecycle accountability for garments. Concurrently, consumer trends increasingly favor sustainable fashion, retro swimwear designs, and digital innovations in apparel, shaping demand toward more durable and environmentally conscious products.
