In 2024, Ireland`s optical sorter import market saw a shift towards a more diversified import base, with top exporting countries including the UK, Italy, Switzerland, Germany, and the USA. The market concentration, as measured by the HHI, decreased from moderate to low in 2024, indicating a more competitive landscape. Despite a modest compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 0.64% from 2020 to 2024, the market experienced a sharp decline in growth rate from 2023 to 2024 at -38.38%. This suggests a challenging year for optical sorter imports in Ireland, highlighting the need for strategic adaptations in the market.
