{"frame":"chunk","id":"overview","node":{"type":"Callout","props":{"type":"info","message":"Ireland's home fitness accessories market is in structural growth. The broader fitness equipment import market posted a 9.4% CAGR (2020–2024) and an exceptional 20.5% year-on-year jump from 2023 to 2024, driven by rising health awareness, growing disposable incomes, and a lasting shift toward home-based exercise. Ireland is projected to expand at a stable 2.81% rate within Europe by 2027 — modest versus Spain's 7.24% CAGR, but consistent with a mature, high-income market. The European home fitness equipment market is estimated at USD 4.46 billion in 2026, growing to USD 5.63 billion by 2031 at a 4.73% CAGR. Ireland sits in the 'Rest of Europe' segment alongside Austria, Denmark, Finland, and Portugal, with economic growth expanding its addressable market but import reliance adding cost pressure."}}}
