The import of starches to Italy is projected to grow steadily from 2024 to 2028, with values increasing from 310.39 million kilograms in 2024 to 350.15 million kilograms in 2028. In 2023, starch import levels stood below these forecasts, reflecting ongoing demand growth. Year-on-year growth rates indicate consistent expansion with approximately 3% annual increases. The five-year compound annual growth rate (CAGR) suggests a relatively stable upward trend as well.
Future trends to watch for include the impact of dietary shifts, sustainability concerns, and industry innovations influencing starch demands. Additionally, economic fluctuations and trade policies may bring about variations in import volumes.
