The UK’s import of dried potatoes in forms like flour, meal, flakes, granulates, and pellets is forecasted to increase consistently from 2024 to 2028. In 2023, import volumes stood at approximately 58.75 million kilograms.
Year-on-year, the volume is expected to grow at a steady pace, showing an annual increase of around 2.0% from 2024 to 2028. This trend indicates a moderately rising demand for such products in the UK market.
Over the five-year forecast period, the CAGR reflects a positive growth trend without significant fluctuations, pointing towards a stable and growing market for imported dried potato products.
Future trends to watch include potential impacts from global supply chain changes, shifts in consumer dietary preferences towards plant-based diets, and any trade policy adjustments post-Brexit which may affect import volumes. Monitoring these factors could provide insights for adjustments in strategy.
