As of 2024, the UK's import of manioc starch is projected to rise steadily from 13.479 million kilograms to 15.447 million kilograms by 2028. The actual import in 2023 was slightly below the 2024 forecast level. Year-on-year variations indicate modest increases between 2024 and 2028, implying a consistently growing market interest. The compound annual growth rate over this five-year span is positive, underlining a stable demand trajectory for manioc starch in the UK.
Future trends to watch include potential impacts of changing UK dietary preferences towards gluten-free and plant-based products, as well as supply chain developments due to global economic and environmental policies affecting agricultural imports.
