The import of tea and coffee to Italy is projected to steadily increase from 45.644 million kilograms in 2024 to 49.819 million kilograms by 2028. This consistent growth suggests a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of approximately 2.2% over these five years. Compared to 2023's imports of 44.8 million kilograms, the forecast reflects a positive outlook with a year-on-year growth rate of around 2.3% in 2024.
- Future trends to watch for include:
- Shifts in consumer preferences towards premium and specialty teas and coffees could influence import volumes.
- Economic factors such as exchange rate fluctuations and tariffs that may impact pricing and, consequently, demand.
- Sustainability and ethical sourcing trends that could affect supplier relationships and import dynamics.
