The forecast for the import of frozen whole chickens to Italy shows a declining trend from 2024 to 2028. In 2024, imports are expected to be 2.7506 million kilograms, decreasing annually to 2.4455 million kilograms by 2028. Compared to 2023, this represents a consistent year-on-year reduction in volume, indicating a shift in market dynamics and potential changes in consumer demand or domestic supply capabilities.
Future trends to watch for include:
- Potential shifts in consumer preferences towards fresh or alternative protein sources.
- Changes in trade policies or tariffs affecting import volumes.
- Advancements in local poultry production, possibly reducing dependency on imports.
