As of 2023, the volume of German imports of prepared or preserved potatoes in the form of flour, meal, or flakes stood at approximately 11 million kilograms. The forecasted data from 2024 indicates a steady annual increase, with projections reaching 11.768 million kilograms by 2028. From 2024 to 2028, the anticipated year-on-year growth fluctuates minimally, reflecting a modest upward trend. Over these five years, the compound annual growth rate (CAGR) suggests a consistent but restrained expansion in import volume.
Future trends to watch for include potential shifts in consumer preferences towards convenience and health, which may drive further demand for preserved potato products. Additionally, market dynamics such as policy changes, trade agreements, and agricultural output in supplying countries could significantly impact Germany's import levels in this category.
