The forecast for beer import volume in Germany from 2024 to 2028 shows a steady yet modest annual growth, with figures rising from 732.58 thousand metric tons in 2024 to 746.61 thousand metric tons by 2028. Compared to the pre-forecast value of approximately 728 thousand metric tons in 2023, the forecast reflects a gradual increase. The average year-on-year growth rate remains below one percent, demonstrating a stable but slow upward trend in beer import volumes over the next five years.
Future trends to watch for include potential changes in consumer preferences towards imported beer varieties and the impact of regulatory changes on international trade. Additionally, shifts in global supply chain dynamics and economic conditions could influence the volume of imports. These factors may result in variability in the underlying growth trajectory.
