In 2023, the per capita volume of tomatoes in Canada stood at 20.66 kilograms. From 2024 to 2028, the forecasted annual growth in tomato consumption per capita is marginal, averaging a Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of approximately 0.20%. Year-on-year, Canadians are predicted to increase their tomato consumption slightly, with variations of around 0.24% annually during this period.
Future trends to watch for include potential shifts in consumer preferences towards locally sourced or organic tomatoes, potential impacts of climate change on tomato production, and any changes in import/export policies affecting supply. Observing new varieties and their acceptance in the market might also influence consumption patterns.
