The import of pineapples to the US is projected to increase steadily from 2024 to 2028, beginning at $856.97 million and reaching $927.66 million. This reflects consistent year-on-year growth, with minor fluctuations. Analyzing trends, the annual growth rate averages approximately 2% through 2028. In 2023, the value stood moderately lower than the 2024 forecast, aligning with the robust upward trend anticipated.
Looking forward, several factors could influence the market:
- Shifts in trade agreements and tariffs affecting import costs
- Consumer preference changes towards healthier diets
- Potential impact of climate change on pineapple production regions
