Sewing machine industry future market size forecast (2025-2030)
1. Global market size trends
2024 year benchmark: The global sewing machine market sales reached $6.486 billion, with China accounting for 65% of the global production capacity and dominating the middle and low-end market.
2025-2031 Forecast: The compound annual growth rate (CAGR) is expected to be-1.2%, and the market size may decline to $5.968 billion in 2031, mainly due to industrial automation upgrades and downstream demand fluctuations1.
2. Regional market differentiation
Asia: China continues to lead, with sales of automatic sewing units increasing by 32% year-on-year in 2024, and the intelligent transformation is accelerating.
Europe : The high-end market is stable, the scale of intelligent sewing machines will grow by 7.8% in 2024, and the demand for energy-saving models is significant .
North America : Home appliances grew 11% due to the DIY boom, e-commerce channels accounted for 45%, and industrial automation demand increased .
3. Intelligence drives growth
In 2025, the penetration rate of intelligent sewing machines may exceed 60%, and AI technology (such as automatic feeding and line break detection) will become the core growth point.
4. Policy and industrial chain impact
China's "equipment renewal" policy has boosted the demand for smart sewing machines, and companies such as Shanggong Shenbei have benefited from the construction of digital workshops.
Industry self-discipline initiative alleviates low price competition and shifts to the research and development of high value-added products, which is good for the long-term health of the market.
5. Risks and challenges
Slower growth in global garment production (up only 3.2% in 2024) is likely to dampen demand for industrial sewing machines.
Technological iteration accelerates, small and medium-sized enterprises face pressure on R&D investment, industry concentration may further increase.
In the next five years, the sewing machine market will show the characteristics of "total stability and structural upgrading", with intelligence and policy dividends as the core variables, and the Asian market is still the main growth force.
