The import of dried shelled urd, mung, black, or green gram beans to the UK is projected to experience consistent growth from 2024 to 2028, with volumes expected to increase from 14.238 million kilograms in 2024 to 15.092 million kilograms in 2028. This represents a steady upward trend year-on-year, with each subsequent year showing incremental growth.
Looking back, 2023 is the baseline year, although specific values from that year aren't provided in this analysis, it is the point from which 2024 forecasts begin. The positive trend from 2024 onwards reflects market stability and growing demand for these beans in the UK.
Future trends to watch for include potential impacts of climate change on bean production in exporting countries, changes in UK demand due to dietary trends or population growth, and fluctuations in trade policies or tariffs that might alter import patterns.
