Cambodia has emerged as a key global processing hub in the fur trade, despite having no domestic fur production.

In 2023, it imported $346.6 million in raw furskins—mostly from Denmark—but reported no exports of raw fur. Instead, Cambodia focuses on processing and re-exporting tanned furskins, exporting $355 million worth—primarily to China—while importing almost nothing in return.

Its role in fur fashion remains limited, with less than $1 million in fur apparel exports, mostly to the USA, but this signals a potential emerging market.

These figures suggest that Cambodia is being used as a low-cost manufacturing base within the global fur supply chain, highlighting how international fur trade often relies on outsourcing production to regions with minimal regulation or transparency.
