In 2023, importation of coconuts, Brazil nuts, and cashew nuts to Mauritius was recorded at $2.45 million. Projections from 2024 onwards indicate a consistent, albeit modest, increase in import values annually. The year-on-year growth rates between 2024 and 2025 are approximately 2.38%, with the subsequent years maintaining similar growth patterns, culminating in a forecasted value of $2.7394 million by 2028. The compound annual growth rate (CAGR) over this five-year period indicates a steady import increase averaging around 2.25% annually.
Future trends to monitor include potential shifts in global prices affecting import volumes, domestic consumption patterns in Mauritius, and trade policy changes. As health consciousness increases, demand for nuts might rise, influencing import needs and growth trajectories.
