The mutton and goat meat market in France shows a steady decline in per capita consumption from 2024 to 2028, with values decreasing annually from 2.53 kg to 2.38 kg. Comparing year-on-year variations, the market shrinks consistently by approximately 1.6% from 2024 to 2028. This downward trend suggests a shift in consumer preferences or a response to economic, dietary, or supply chain factors. Forecasting from 2024, the compound annual growth rate (CAGR) for this period suggests a reduction trend in demand for this meat category.
Future trends to watch for include shifts in dietary preferences towards plant-based or alternative protein sources, which may further impact consumption. Additionally, changes in pricing, import-export dynamics, and domestic production capacities could alter forecasted trends. Monitoring sustainability and animal welfare issues may also influence consumer choices and market dynamics in the coming years.
