In 2023, the production of green tea, black tea, and partly fermented tea in immediate packings not exceeding 3 kg in Germany was approximately 26.264 million kilograms. The forecast from 2024 to 2028 shows a consistent decline, with production dropping from 26.109 million kilograms in 2024 to 25.496 million kilograms by 2028. The year-on-year decline is approximately 0.6%-0.7% annually, resulting in a 5-year compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of approximately -0.6%. This indicates a subtle but persistent decrease in production volumes over the forecast period.
Future trends to watch for include potential shifts in consumer preferences towards alternatives like herbal infusions or specialty teas, which may further impact demand. Additionally, sustainability trends and environmental concerns around packaging may drive innovations in the industry.
