The forecast for fresh apple consumption per capita in Canada remains steady at 8.98 kilograms from 2024 through 2028, showing no change from the previous year. In 2023, consumption was also 8.98 kilograms, indicating stable demand over the forecast period with zero year-on-year variation. This lack of change suggests a consistent consumption pattern. The five-year compound annual growth rate (CAGR) also remains at 0%, underscoring the stagnancy in growth expectations over this period.

Future trends to watch:

Potential shifts in consumer preferences towards other fruits or exotic varieties could impact apple consumption.
Any developments in the Canadian agriculture policy or import-export dynamics might influence availability and thus consumption.
Continued interest in health and nutrition trends and their impact on fresh fruit consumption overall.
