Germany leads in European imports of chain products in 2024 with a share of 12.86%, reflecting a small growth of 1.95% year-on-year. The Netherlands and the UK follow with significant but slightly declining shares. Italy shows robust growth at 4.41%, overtaking France. Other notable increases are in Sweden, Greece, and Slovenia. Luxembourg, despite small volumes, shows the largest growth percentage.
Future trends to monitor include the potential expansion of Italy's share if current growth continues. The impact of declining performance in countries like Ireland and Finland may also become significant. Moreover, the post-Brexit trade dynamics influencing the UK’s chain imports deserve attention.
