The import of wholly or partly defatted cocoa paste to Germany is projected to see a consistent increase from 2024 to 2028. Starting at 26.017 million kilograms in 2024, the import volume is expected to grow by approximately 2.3% each year, reaching 28.352 million kilograms by 2028. The forecasted data indicates a steady upward trend with an average annual increase of around 2.3% over this five-year period.
Future trends to watch for include potential impacts of global cocoa supply dynamics, shifts in consumer preferences towards healthier or different chocolate alternatives, and regulatory changes affecting cocoa imports. These factors could influence the demand and eventually the import volumes in subsequent years.
