From 2011 to 2021, Croatia's confectionery price per unit experienced a decline from €6.38 to €5.11 per kilogram, indicating a general downward trend. Specifically, between 2016 and 2019, prices saw a marked decrease, culminating in the lowest recorded value in 2019 at €4.91. However, a slight recovery is evident in 2020 and 2021, with prices slightly rebounding to €5.09 and €5.11 respectively.
Future trends to watch for:
- Potential for further price stabilization post-2021, possibly influenced by economic recovery efforts and shifts in raw material costs.
- Consumer behavior changes, particularly post-pandemic, which might affect demand and price dynamics in the confectionery sector.
- Inflationary pressures could result in price increases as suppliers adjust to higher input costs.
