Report Highlights

We forecast the German clothing market to grow by 9.4% between 2013 and 2018. Growth in the coming five years will be aided by higher volumes as increased competition and availability of fashionable product encourage more frequent purchases.

Germany's clothing market is large - the largest in the EU27 region - and yet it is highly fragmented with no one player with a commanding lead over the rest. When it comes to retail channels however, clothing specialists dominate the market, with more than a 60% share - ensuring competition is intense.

As is the trend across the EU, mature shoppers in Germany remain neglected by clothing retailers, with many new entrants such as Primark and Hollister, focusing on younger shoppers. However, with an additional 6.5 million 65+s by 2040, clothing retailers need to cater to these shoppers or risk losing sales to competitors that do.
