The UK's import of provisionally preserved fruits and nuts is forecasted to decrease steadily from 2024 onwards, dropping from 5.6034 million kilograms to 3.6007 million kilograms by 2028. This represents a noticeable downward trend in import volumes. From 2024 to 2025, there is a 9.2% decrease, and this trend continues with a declining percentage year-on-year. The Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) over the five-year period is anticipated to be negative, highlighting a consistent reduction in import volumes.
In 2023, imports stood higher, and this forecast indicates a significant shift in import patterns. Future trends to watch include potential changes in domestic production capacity, evolving consumer preferences towards fresher products, or international trade policies that may further impact imports in this sector.
