In 2023, Germany imported 12.7 million kilograms of prepared or preserved strawberries. The forecast from 2024 to 2028 indicates a year-on-year decline in import volume, with 2024 at 12.412 million kg, dropping steadily to 11.352 million kg by 2028. The compound annual growth rate (CAGR) over the five-year period suggests a consistent decrease in imports.
Future trends to watch for include changes in domestic strawberry production, consumer preferences shifting towards local produce, and potential trade policy impacts on import volumes. Additionally, technological advances in preservation methods might affect future import needs.
