The silk market in Qatar is projected to grow at a CAGR of 4. 5% over the forecast period and reach USD 18 million. The major factors driving this growth are rising demand for textiles from apparel manufacturers as well as rising number of high net worth individuals that prefer luxury fabrics such as silk fabric for their clothing needs. In 2025 ,the domestic production was estimated at 2 thousand metric tons (MT) while imports amounted to 12 thousand MT; exports were nil in Qatar during that same year. Major suppliers of imported silk fabric into Qatar are India, China, Thailand among others.
The growth of the Qatar silk market is driven by the rise in luxury fashion and textiles. Silk is a premium natural fiber known for its luxurious feel and versatility in clothing, accessories, and home furnishings. As Qatar fashion and textile industries expand, driven by changing consumer preferences and global trends, the demand for high-quality silk products is expected to grow.
Challenges in the Qatar silk market include the need for localized silk production and maintaining traditional craftsmanship. Silk is often imported, and establishing local sericulture practices could face hurdles related to climate suitability and technical expertise. Furthermore, preserving traditional silk weaving techniques and fostering a market for handcrafted silk products may require concerted efforts to promote cultural heritage.
The silk market in Qatar, known for its luxury and high-quality products, experienced disruptions due to the COVID-19 pandemic. As global trade and travel restrictions were implemented, the supply chain for silk products was adversely affected. Traditional markets and retail outlets that cater to tourists and high-end consumers saw reduced footfall, impacting sales of silk products. Furthermore, the shift towards remote work and virtual events reduced the demand for formal and luxury attire, which often incorporates silk fabrics. While the market faced challenges, some silk producers and retailers adapted by offering online sales and exploring domestic markets. As economic activities resumed and consumer confidence improved, there were signs of recovery in the silk market. However, the market`s revival depended on factors such as the pace of international tourism recovery and evolving consumer preferences.
The key players in Qatarsilk market include Alhayat Silk, Al-Raya Textiles Industries, Al Bayader Trading, Mazinah Group of Companies, Burgan Group for Textile Trading, and Arabian Weaving & Spinning Company.
