In 2024, Ireland continued to witness a steady flow of solution mining imports, with the top exporting countries being the UK, USA, Germany, Netherlands, and Spain. Despite moderate concentration levels indicated by the Herfindahl-Hirschman Index (HHI), the industry experienced a robust compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 13.92% from 2020 to 2024. However, there was a slight decline in the growth rate from 2023 to 2024, with a decrease of -1.03%. This data suggests a stable yet slightly decelerating trend in solution mining import shipments to Ireland, highlighting the importance of monitoring market dynamics for future strategies.
