The import of prepared or preserved potatoes in the form of flour, meal, or flakes to France presents a clear decreasing trend from 2024 to 2028. In 2023, the import volume stood at approximately 4.5 Million Kilograms. Applying year-on-year variations, the data forecasts a steady decline each year, with average decreases contributing to a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of around -8% over the five-year period from 2024 onwards.
Future trends to watch for include:
- Potential shifts in consumer preferences towards fresh or alternative forms of potatoes could further impact imports negatively.
- Evolving trade policies and market dynamics within the European Union might influence the supply chain and import volumes.
- The impact of economic factors such as inflation or changes in purchasing power on the demand for imported potato products.
