The forecast for the import of apple juice to India indicates a steady growth from 2024 to 2028. In 2023, the imports stood at an important point, signalling the demand that is expected to rise gradually over the following years. The data for 2024 shows a 4% increase from the previous year, while 2025 reflects a 4% rise as well. Continued growth is anticipated, with a 3.8% increase in 2026, a 3.6% increment in 2027, and a 3.4% rise in 2028. The compound annual growth rate (CAGR) over five years reflects a consistent upward trend, further underscoring the increasing demand for apple juice imports in India.
Future trends to watch for include:
- Shift in consumer preferences towards healthier options, which may influence the apple juice demand.
- India's growing middle-class population, potentially leading to higher consumption rates.
- Trade policy changes or currency fluctuations could impact import costs and volumes.
- Rising awareness of sustainability might affect supply chain dynamics.
