The forecasted import of solid refined cane or beet sugar and chemically pure sucrose to the UK indicates a steady increase from 2024 to 2028, with values escalating from 529.92 million kilograms in 2024 to 589.19 million kilograms in 2028. Comparing these metrics to the actual figures from 2023, this suggests a consistent growth trajectory. The year-on-year percentage increase between 2024 and 2028 reflects a stable upward trend, underlined by the Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) that illustrates a moderate expansion on average per year over five years.

Future trends to monitor include:

Potential changes in global sugar market dynamics, including production and trade policies.
Fluctuations in consumer demand influenced by health trends and dietary changes.
Impact of economic factors such as inflation and currency exchange rates on import volumes.
Regulatory adjustments and sustainability practices affecting the sugar industry.
