Malta thin wafer import shipments in 2024 continued to be dominated by top exporters Italy, Germany, China, India, and Netherlands. Despite a high Herfindahl-Hirschman Index (HHI) indicating market concentration, the industry experienced a significant decline with a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of -21.53% from 2020 to 2024. The growth rate plummeted even further in 2024 by -95.81%, reflecting a challenging year for the market. Monitoring these trends closely will be crucial for stakeholders in the thin wafer industry to navigate the changing landscape in Malta.
