The forecast for French whey re-imports shows a declining trend from 2024 to 2028. In 2023, re-imports stood at a value indicating robustness, but the projections for subsequent years reveal a significant year-on-year decreasing pattern. From 2024 to 2025, there is an estimated decrease of 18%, followed by a 21.6% drop from 2025 to 2026. The decline continues with a reduction of 27% from 2026 to 2027 and 36.2% from 2027 to 2028. The compound annual growth rate (CAGR) emphasizes an average decrease per year of considerable magnitude over the five-year period.
Future trends to monitor include potential shifts in global whey supply chains due to geopolitical and economic factors, changes in domestic demand for whey in France, and any government policy adjustments affecting re-import tariffs or subsidies. Observing technological advancements in whey production and processing may also present new opportunities or challenges for the industry. Keeping an eye on these elements will be crucial for anticipating further market dynamics.
