In 2023, Germany's import of fresh raspberries, blackberries, mulberries, and loganberries was valued at an about 342 million US dollars. The forecasted figures from 2024 to 2028 show a steady increase, with an expected average annual growth rate of approximately 3.9% over these five years.
The year-on-year variations highlight a consistent growth pattern of around 4% each year. Specifically, the increase from 2024 to 2025 is 4.15%, from 2025 to 2026 is 3.9%, from 2026 to 2027 is 3.68%, and from 2027 to 2028 is 3.48%, indicating a slightly tapering growth rate.
Looking forward, several trends are important to monitor:
- Consumer demand for fresh berries driven by health and wellness trends.
- Impact of trade policies and tariffs on import volumes.
- Supply chain dynamics and their effect on import prices.
