The data for 2023 reveals France as the largest European importer of tapioca and starch-based substitutes in flakes and grains, slightly declining compared to last year. Notable growth occurred in Belgium and the Netherlands, with the latter experiencing substantial import increases alongside Romania and Ireland. Germany and Spain also improved, reflecting growing demand across Europe, with Slovakia and Malta showing significant growth from smaller bases. However, Latvia experienced a notable decline.
Future trends to watch include increased import volumes driven by sustainable supply chain adaptations and evolving consumer preferences in Europe towards plant-based products. Monitoring environmental regulations and supply chain innovations will be crucial for future market dynamics.
