In 2023, the import value of dried apples to Brazil was significantly higher compared to forecasted values from 2024 onwards, marking a declining trend in the market. From 2024 to 2028, a consistent annual decrease in import value is observed. The year-on-year changes indicate a steady reduction in spending, with sharp declines notable each year: 14.71% from 2024 to 2025, 16.92% from 2025 to 2026, and 19.53% from 2026 to 2027, concluding with 24.36% from 2027 to 2028. The compound annual growth rate over these five years reflects a marked contraction in the market.
Future trends to watch for include potential shifts in consumer preferences, changes in domestic production of dried apples, and fluctuations in economic conditions that could further impact import levels. The continued decrease suggests an opportunity for local producers to capture market share or potential substitution by other dried fruits.
