The forecast for the re-import of chestnuts to France indicates a gradual decline from 2024 to 2028, with volumes decreasing annually by 1.38% on average. In 2023, the re-import volume stood as a baseline against which future estimates show a downward trajectory. The anticipated decrease over five years highlights a consistent but moderate reduction in demand or shifts in supply chain dynamics.
Future trends to watch for include:
- Changes in domestic production and its impact on re-import needs.
- Potential shifts in consumer preferences towards alternative products.
- Economic factors influencing import-export balances.
- Trade policy adjustments affecting international chestnut trade.
