N2 - In recent decades, the international trade pattern in both raw fur skins and fur garment has changed. Fur garment industry has to a high degree moved from Europe to Asia – in particular China. However, the picture of Asia as very important importer of raw fur skins, and as manufacturers of fur garment is also changing. Hong Kong was a transit country, but now China is the direct market. Within recent years new Asian countries have become more important within dressing and tanning of raw fur skins, but also production and export of fur clothing in these new Asian countries has increased. The income level seems to be significant drivers behind the international specialisation in global fur industry.The purpose of this article is to identify, explain, verify and empirically document selected trends and changes in the global fur business. Such trends and changes may be important for the long-term and strategic development of the entire fur industry.
