Maldives continues to heavily rely on imports of lightweight construction materials, with key suppliers being China, India, UAE, Indonesia, and Sri Lanka in 2024. Despite a high Herfindahl-Hirschman Index (HHI) indicating market concentration, the industry experienced a negative compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of -7.16% from 2020 to 2024. The growth rate in 2024 further declined by -7.06%, pointing to potential challenges or shifts in the market dynamics affecting the import of these materials into the Maldives. Continued monitoring and adaptation to changing trends will be essential for stakeholders in this sector.
