The import of black tea in packages less than 3 kg to Japan is forecasted to show a declining trend from 2024 to 2028. In 2023, the imports stood at approximately 2.15 million kilograms. The year-on-year percentage change from 2024 to 2028 reflects a consistent decrease, averaging a CAGR of approximately -3.2% per year over this period.
Future trends to watch for include changes in consumer preferences, emerging tea markets, and the impact of trade regulations. Monitoring shifts towards specialty teas or alternative beverages, as well as environmental policies affecting packaging, could further influence import volumes.
