The forecast for the re-import of Gum Arabic to Italy from 2024 to 2028 shows a consistent decline. In 2024, the volume is expected to be 11.22 thousand kilograms, decreasing by approximately 10% to 10.1 thousand kilograms in 2025. It continues to drop each year, reaching 6.91 thousand kilograms by 2028. This represents a compounded annual growth rate (CAGR) of about -11% over these five years, indicating a significant downward trend.

Future trends to watch for include:

Changes in global supply chains due to geopolitical events which could impact availability and cost.
Shift in demand from industries using gum arabic, potentially affecting import volumes.
Emerging substitutes for gum arabic in the market, which could decelerate re-import needs.
