In 2023, the import of peaches and nectarines to China was reported at 25 million kilograms. Forecasts indicate a steady upward trend in the import volumes: 26.934 million kilograms in 2024, increasing annually to reach 32.813 million kilograms by 2028. This represents an annual growth rate (CAGR) of approximately 5% over the five-year forecast period. Each year sees an incremental increase, with the highest growth observed between 2024 and 2025.
Future trends to watch for include potential shifts in consumer preferences towards locally grown fruits, changes in trade policies affecting import tariffs, and the impact of climate conditions on global production affecting supply and pricing dynamics.
