From 2012 to 2022, Germany's bread market size volume per capita showed a general decline. Starting at 59.16 kg in 2012, it eventually lowered to 55.89 kg by 2022. Year-on-year variations indicate a mixed trend with some slight increases and decreases. Notably, there were declines from 2020 to 2021 by 1.72% and from 2021 to 2022 by 0.65%. The compound annual growth rate (CAGR) over the last five years signals a continuous decrease in bread consumption per capita.
Future trends to watch for include a possible continued decline due to increasing health awareness pushing consumers toward lower carbohydrate and gluten-free alternatives. Additionally, sustainability concerns might influence consumer preferences towards locally-sourced or alternative grain breads.
