The re-import of fresh or chilled tomatoes to Canada is forecasted to increase from 606.87 thousand kilograms in 2024 to 723.52 thousand kilograms by 2028. Assuming the data in 2023 to be lower than in 2024, the trend indicates a steady increase in import volumes. Year-on-year, the imports are expected to grow by approximately 4.95% from 2024 to 2025, by 4.63% from 2025 to 2026, by 4.33% from 2026 to 2027, and by 4.08% from 2027 to 2028. The compound annual growth rate (CAGR) over these five years is projected to be around 4.5%.
Future trends to watch for include potential changes in consumer demand and dietary preferences, shifts in global trade policies impacting import dynamics, and advancements in preservation and transportation technologies that could influence import volumes.
