**Greek Imports of Pig Bristles Rise Amid EU Demand**
**Greece’s Brisk Import Activity Drives Eurozone Growth**
* Greek imports of pig bristles from the European Union rose 12% in June, driven by strong demand from manufacturers.
* The country imported 500 MT of pig bristles during this period, with Germany and France accounting for over 70% of total shipments.
* Rising EU production costs have led to increased reliance on foreign suppliers, contributing to higher import volumes.
Greece’s brisk imports of pig bristles in June reflect a broader trend of strong demand from the European Union. As EU producers struggle with rising costs, they are increasingly turning to international suppliers to meet their needs. This shift has driven up import volumes and is expected to continue as manufacturers seek cost-effective alternatives to domestic production.
