생가죽 시장 기회, 성장 촉진요인, 산업 동향 분석, 예측(2025-2034년)

The Global Raw Hides and Skins Market was valued at USD 94.3 billion in 2024 and is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 6.6% to reach USD 178.8 billion by 2034, attributed to the rising demand for leather-based goods across multiple industries, including apparel, home furnishings, and luxury accessories. As consumer preferences continue to lean toward premium, durable materials, the market for raw hides and skins is benefitting from this shift. The appeal of high-end leather products has led to a rise in consumption patterns, particularly in fashion and interior applications, where aesthetics, longevity, and comfort play significant roles in purchasing behavior. The market is deeply influenced by the global expansion of the leather industry, which relies heavily on a consistent supply of raw materials. A notable factor driving growth is the steady output of hides worldwide. In 2023, the global production of raw hides was approximately 21 million metric tons, with a major portion derived from cattle. This trend is closely linked to regions that have a strong presence in livestock farming, providing a stable foundation for market expansion.

Cattle hides continue to dominate the raw hides and skins market in terms of both volume and revenue. In 2024, the cattle hides segment was valued at USD 51.6 billion and is anticipated to expand at a CAGR of 6.5% over the forecast period. These hides are favored due to their superior strength, thickness, and overall quality, making them ideal for manufacturing robust leather goods such as footwear, furniture upholstery, and luxury fashion items. Their availability remains consistent due to large-scale cattle farming operations in regions with well-established livestock industries. As a result, the segment retains its position as the most economically influential category within the market. In contrast, other types of hides, though increasingly popular in certain local markets, have yet to match the production levels or global demand for cattle hides. Nonetheless, they present a potential growth area as niche consumer bases emerge.

In terms of application, the clothing segment plays a vital role in shaping market dynamics. Valued at USD 38.2 billion in 2024, this segment is set to grow at a CAGR of 7% through 2034, claiming a substantial market share of 40.7%. The growing popularity of leather garments-including jackets, skirts, pants, and accessories-reflects changing fashion trends and rising disposable income among middle and upper-income consumers. Leather continues to be seen as a stylish, long-lasting material that fits into modern and luxury fashion aesthetics. As global fashion brands integrate more leather into their collections, demand for raw hides in the clothing sector is expected to maintain upward momentum. There is also a shift toward sustainable fashion choices, which include eco-conscious processing and the use of high-quality leather that supports long-term use rather than disposable consumption. This change in consumer behavior supports growth in the leather clothing segment, particularly in developing economies and affluent urban centers.

The market in the United States alone was valued at USD 21.4 billion in 2024 and is expected to grow at a CAGR of 6.4% between 2025 and 2034. The country continues to be a key player in global leather production, largely due to its access to premium-quality hides and advanced processing infrastructure. Demand across multiple industries-such as automotive interiors, furniture, and fashion-remains strong, with an increasing focus on high-performance and sustainable materials. Innovations in tanning and treatment technologies have also contributed to product quality and consistency, enhancing the competitiveness of the U.S. market.

Companies operating in the industry are actively competing by improving product quality, streamlining pricing strategies, and developing distinct value propositions. Environmental concerns are prompting businesses to adopt responsible sourcing practices and cleaner production methods, which are becoming central to maintaining brand reputation and meeting regulatory expectations. In addition to these efforts, supply chain optimization and strategic partnerships are helping firms broaden their global reach and respond more efficiently to market demands. This evolving landscape highlights the need for constant innovation and cost efficiency to remain relevant in an increasingly competitive environment.
