The import of Vitamin C to the UK is forecasted at a slight, consistent decline over the next five years, starting from 4.2053 million kilograms in 2024 to 4.133 million kilograms by 2028. This downward trend shows a year-on-year average decrease of around 0.5% over the period. Compared to 2023, the analysis suggests that the market for Vitamin C imports is shrinking gradually. The Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) over the forecasted period is negative, indicating a declining demand.
Future trends to watch for include potential shifts in consumer preference towards more natural sources of Vitamin C, pressures from local manufacturing, and any regulatory changes post-Brexit that might impact import volumes.
