The global export market share of cabbage, cauliflower, kohlrabi, and kale in 2023 was dominated by China, contributing the highest value share, followed by Spain, the United States, and Mexico. Significant growth was observed in emerging markets like Macedonia, Oman, and Palestine, indicating diversification from traditional European markets such as France and Germany, which experienced declines. Notably, Cyprus and Kuwait showcased remarkable growth, though from a smaller base. China's export value grew moderately at over 4%, while Spain and Italy saw more modest growth but maintained significant market shares.
Looking ahead, trends to watch include the potential expansion of exports from countries like Thailand and Armenia, given their recent substantial growth rates. As sustainability concerns rise, the demand for these vegetables may increase, potentially shifting market dynamics further. Watch for efforts to diversify markets, enhancing trade relationships beyond current major exporters to include smaller nations with growing capabilities.
