The Netherlands leads global potatoes export with a 19.54% share in 2024, showing a modest growth of 1.08% over the last year. Belgium and Germany follow with shares of 14.75% and 14.03%, respectively, both experiencing slight increases. The United States and France round out the top five but have seen marginal year-on-year growth close to 0.5%. Notable declines include Egypt and Israel, with respective drops in export share of over 1% year-on-year. Russia and Kazakhstan have seen significant growth, up by 5.71% and 9.69%, signaling strong expansion in these regions.
Future trends to monitor include the rising exports from Eastern Europe, particularly Russia and Kazakhstan, which could reshape traditional market leaders. The recovery or further decline in Egypt's and Israel's potato export within the next few years will also be pivotal. Continued demand fluctuations in Asian markets could impact growth for countries like China and Pakistan.
