In 2023, the UK imported shelled hazelnuts and filberts valued at approximately 14.95 million USD. The forecast data from 2024 to 2028 suggests a subtle declining trend. In 2024, the projected import value is 14.868 million USD, with a slight decrease year-on-year, reaching 14.518 million USD by 2028. This indicates a gradual dip at an average annual decline rate of about 0.6% per year over the five-year period.
Future trends to watch for include:
- Changes in demand driven by shifts in consumer preferences or health trends.
- Potential tariff or trade policy changes impacting import costs.
- Fluctuations in global supply, especially from key hazelnut-producing regions.
