In 2023, the labor cost per FTE in the Italian juice sector stood at approximately 56.5 thousand euros. Forecasted data indicates a slight upward trend, with costs rising from 56.9 thousand euros in 2024 to 58.3 thousand euros by 2028. Year-on-year growth is modest, averaging around 0.7% annually. This steady increase reflects a continued pressure on wage adjustments within the industry.
Future trends to watch for include potential impacts from automation and technological advancements, labor market policy changes in Italy, and shifts in consumer demand for juice products, which could further influence labor cost adjustments over the coming years.
