#8 In EuropeEurope's Precious and Non-Ferrous Metal Manufacturing industry has had a volatile run recently, heavily impacted by fluctuating metal prices and the far-reaching effects of COVID-19. A significant presence scattered across the continent, including Germany, France, Italy, and Eastern Europe, ensures a highly competitive market. However, it's also laden with challenges due to growing imports from cost-effective Asian countries, primarily China. The high volatility in metal prices, coupled with a drop in demand from various sectors during COVID-19 and recent inflationary pressures, have weighed on industry revenue. Revenue is projected to contract at a compound annual rate of 6.5% to €210 billion over the five years through 2024.
