In 2023, Germany's import of milk and cream with a fat content not exceeding 1% in immediate packings over 2 liters stood at a certain value, which set the baseline for subsequent forecasts. From 2024 to 2028, the import volume is projected to decline consistently from 106.89 million kilograms in 2024 to 90.836 million kilograms by 2028.
Year-on-year variations indicate a decreasing trend:
- -3.82% in 2025
- -3.92% in 2026
- -4.04% in 2027
- -4.17% in 2028
Over the five-year period, the compound annual growth rate (CAGR) reflects an average decline in imports, signaling a consistent downward trajectory.
Future trends to watch for include changing consumer preferences towards low-fat products, potential policy changes on dairy imports due to environmental concerns, and economic factors that could affect domestic demand and production capabilities in Germany.
