In 2023, the production of whole milk powder or full cream powder with a fat content over 1.5% in immediate packings exceeding 2.5 kg in Germany reached the actual value of 97.720 million kilograms. The forecasted values for 2024 to 2028 indicate a gradual decline, with a year-on-year decrease starting from 2025. The compound annual growth rate (CAGR) over these five years reflects a consistent, albeit slight, decrease in production volumes, pointing to a stable but contracting market over the long term.
Future trends to watch for:
- Shifts in consumer preferences towards alternative milk products which may impact production volumes.
- Possible regulatory changes affecting dairy production and export markets.
- Technological advancements improving production efficiency and sustainability.
- Impact of global economic conditions on dairy exports from Germany.
