The refined maize oil market in Italy is projected to maintain a stable volume per capita from 2024 to 2028, fluctuating marginally between 0.98 and 0.99 kilograms per capita. This indicates a convergence towards a steady consumption rate, with no significant changes expected annually. Compared to 2023, when the volume stood at a similar level, the year-on-year variation remains minimal, underlining the stability of this sector over time.
Future trends to watch for:
- Sustainability and healthy eating trends influencing consumption patterns.
- Potential impact of economic fluctuations on consumer spending in edible oils.
- The evolution of domestic maize production which might affect supply and pricing.
