In 2023, Chile's green coffee imports stood at 210 thousand units (Bags of 60 kg). The forecasted data indicates a slight decline in the subsequent years: 209 in 2024, 208 in 2025 and 2026, 207 in 2027, and 206 in 2028. The year-on-year variation shows a steady decline of about 0.48% annually between 2024 and 2028. Over the last two years (2024-2025), the decrease is marginal, averaging around 0.48% per year, reflecting a stable but slightly downward trend. The last five years' CAGR, from 2023 to 2028, similarly indicates an average annual decline of approximately 0.38%.
Future trends to watch for include potential shifts in consumer preferences towards specialty and sustainable coffee, which may impact import volumes. Additionally, trade policies, climate change affecting coffee-producing countries, and macroeconomic factors such as inflation and currency fluctuations will be critical to monitor as they can influence the costs and availability of green coffee imports in Chile.
