• Pens: import and export

In several parts of the world, students are going back to their school desks. In the northern hemisphere, the start of the academic year is mostly in September, but in the southern hemisphere, this occurrence is in January. Education is a fundamental part of everybody’s life, and students need the right tools to focus on their learning. School supplies are pens, pencils, erasers, crayons, notebooks, and more. Today we are going to look in depth at the import and export of pens.

It's usually a tool that we take for granted, but it wasn't always like that. Modern ballpoint pens were invented in the late 19th century, and they became popular in the 1930s and 1940s. Pens are made from a variety of materials, including plastic and metal.

The whole pen market is worth a total of $5.38 billion in 2020. The top exporters were China ($1.44 billion), Japan ($846 million), Germany ($667 million), France ($325 million), and Mexico ($279 million). United States ($992 million), Germany ($389 million), France ($355 million), the United Kingdom ($246 million), and China ($229 million) were the top importers.
