The forecasted import value of fresh raspberry, blackberry, mulberry, and loganberry to Japan from 2024 to 2028 shows a gradual upward trend, beginning at $13.68 million in 2024 and reaching $14.139 million by 2028. This represents an average compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of approximately 0.83% over the five-year period. Unfortunately, without the 2023 data, a precise year-on-year variation cannot be provided. The consistent growth reflects a stable demand and possibly increasing consumer interest in these fruits within Japan.
Future trends to watch include:
- Changes in consumer preferences towards healthier, fresh produce.
- Potential impacts of trade agreements or tariffs on import prices.
- Environmental factors or supply chain disruptions that could affect fruit availability.
- Innovations in preservation and transportation that could enhance the import process.
