In 2023, France imported essential oils of lemon at 509.00 thousand kilograms. Forecasts indicate modest growth from 2024 to 2028, with expected figures of 511.2, 514.15, 517.05, 519.89, and 522.67 thousand kilograms respectively. The year-on-year growth suggests a steady but moderate increase, with each year seeing small percentage rises maintaining the demand trend. Over the five-year period from 2023 to 2028, the Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) highlights a consistent upward trajectory.

Future trends to watch for:

Seasonal and climatic factors that could impact lemon production and consequently oil availability.
Shifts in consumer preference towards natural ingredients that might boost demand.
Potential changes in trade regulations that could affect import dynamics.
