In 2023, India held the largest share of global non-centrifugal sugar demand, followed by Colombia and Myanmar. While India saw a slight decrease of 0.98% year-on-year, significant reductions were noted in Venezuela (-19.73%) and China (-3.87%). Most countries saw marginal declines in demand, with exceptions like Nigeria showing slight growth. Over the past five years, global demand has seen mild fluctuations with modest declines, indicating relatively stable but slightly decreasing market trends globally.
Looking forward, increased awareness of sugar substitutes and sustainable agriculture practices may influence demand patterns, particularly in high-consumption regions like South Asia. Monitoring economic conditions and consumer preferences will be vital for projecting future demand shifts.
