The import forecast for logs of beech (Fagus spp) into Canada shows a steady increase from 24.11 thousand cubic meters in 2024 to 24.76 thousand cubic meters by 2028. Compared to 2023, where imports stood at approximately the same volume, the figures indicate a slow but consistent growth trajectory.
Year-on-year variations highlight marginal increases of around 0.7% over each successive year, reflecting a stable demand in the Canadian market. Over the five-year period, the compound annual growth rate (CAGR) is modest, underscoring a gradual yet consistent trend.
In the future, factors to watch include potential changes in international trade policies, shifts in environmental regulations, and fluctuations in the construction and furniture industries, which might influence the demand for beech logs in Canada.
