In 2023, Italy led the European import of partly or wholly hydrogenated vegetable fats and oils, with a strong annual increase of 28.82% in volume share, followed by Germany and Denmark. Other key markets like Belgium, Poland, and France saw slight declines. The UK and Germany experienced significant reductions, whereas Spain and Slovenia showed positive growth. Major declines were noted in countries like Greece, Hungary, and Croatia.
Future trends may see Italy strengthening its dominance in imports, incentivized by local industry demands and market expansion. Watch for sustainable shifts as EU regulations and health trends drive a potential move towards non-hydrogenated alternatives.
