In 2023, the import value of black tea in packages less than 3 kg to Italy stood at 48.904 million USD. By 2024, it is forecasted to remain the same, with subsequent years showing modest growth: 1.17% in 2025, 1.13% in 2026, 1.10% in 2027, and 1.06% by 2028, reaching 51.129 million USD. The 5-year compound annual growth rate (CAGR) indicates a steady average annual increase of around 1.10%.

Future trends to watch for:

Shifts in consumer preferences towards premium or specialty teas which may impact small package imports.
Potential trade policy changes affecting import tariffs or agreements with key tea-exporting countries.
Growth in online retailing could influence buying patterns, increasing demand for smaller, convenient packages.
