The global sugar supply per capita varies significantly by country, with Luxembourg leading. In 2023, Luxembourg's sugar consumption per capita was the highest, followed by Lithuania and Ireland. Notable decreases occurred in Slovakia and Colombia, indicating a reduced per capita consumption trend. Strong increases in Estonia and Hungary suggest shifting dietary preferences or economic changes. The United States and Russia saw minor year-on-year variations, stabilizing around their long-term averages. Over the past five years, the compound annual growth rate shows mixed results, with countries like Estonia and Norway experiencing significant growth, while nations like Canada and India have declining trends in sugar consumption.
Future trends to watch:
- Increasing consumer awareness and health trends could potentially reduce sugar consumption in high-income countries.
- Economic factors may drive changes in sugar supply in emerging markets, either increasing or stabilizing their consumption rates.
- Potential regulatory changes and sugar taxes could influence future sugar consumption patterns globally.
- Technological advancements in alternative sweeteners may shift traditional sugar consumption patterns.
