The forecast for the import of prepared or preserved citrus fruits to China shows a steady increase from 2024 to 2028, growing from 73.61 to 79.012 million kilograms. Compared to 2023, where imports stood at approximately 72 million kilograms, this represents a consistent year-on-year growth, averaging around 1.3% annually over the five years. This stable growth reflects China's increasing demand for processed citrus products.

Future trends to watch for include:

Changes in trade policies or tariffs that could affect import volumes.
Domestic production shifts that might impact the need for imports.
Consumer preference trends toward fresh versus processed fruits, influencing import demand.
