In 2023, Germany imported 93.62 million kilograms of flavored liquid yogurt or acidified milk. The import forecast from 2024 to 2028 indicates a gradual increase, growing from 94.335 million kilograms in 2024 to 97.203 million kilograms in 2028. This steady increase demonstrates a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of approximately 0.69% over these five years. The year-on-year growth, while stable, suggests a modest rise in demand for these products in Germany.
Future trends to watch for:
- Expansion of health-conscious consumer segments seeking dairy alternatives or low-sugar options.
- Regulatory changes concerning the import of dairy products and standards for flavored yogurts.
- Potential influence of sustainability trends and packaging innovations in the dairy sector.
- Market disruptions caused by economic changes or international trade policies.
