The forecasted import of fresh or chilled peas to the UK shows a steady increase from 2024 to 2028, with values rising from 17.96 million kilograms in 2024 to 19.262 million kilograms in 2028. Comparatively, if 2023 had seen a higher or stable amount, these data suggest a conservative growth pattern. Year-on-year, the imports display modest increases, indicative of consistent demand recovery or slight consumption uptick within the UK market.
Key trends to monitor for the future include:
- Impact of climate change on local agriculture influencing import needs.
- Trade policy developments post-Brexit that might affect import volume.
- Changing consumer preferences towards fresh produce.
