NEWARK, Del, Sept. 02, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The global kids apparel market is on a robust growth trajectory, predicted to register a CAGR of 6.8% over the forecast period, according to a recent analysis by Future Market Insights (FMI). The market size is anticipated to surge from USD 200.03 billion in 2023 to an impressive USD 386.19 billion by the end of 2033.
The kids' apparel industry is expected to witness significant expansion in the coming years, driven by several key factors. Rising investments aimed at establishing brands that specifically target the needs of parents and children are poised to fuel market growth. Organized retailers are drawing more consumers by leveraging various strategies, including promotional activities, the right product assortments, targeted advertising, and enhanced visual merchandising techniques.
Notably, many brands that previously catered exclusively to adult fashion have now broadened their product lines to include children's clothing. This expansion, coupled with new trends inspired by child celebrities and the increasing influence of social media platforms, is significantly boosting the sales of kids' apparel.
The global market for kids' apparel is experiencing significant growth, driven by an increase in clothing-related purchases among parents. This surge can be attributed to the rising number of newborns worldwide, which has led to heightened demand for children's clothing products.
Efforts to reduce child mortality rates across the globe have also played a pivotal role in boosting the market. Substantial progress in this area has contributed to a growing population of young children, further fueling the need for kids' wear. According to 2021 statistics from the World Bank, approximately 25% of the global population is under the age of 15, highlighting the expansive market potential for children's apparel.
