The forecast for France's import of fresh or chilled boneless bovine cuts from 2024 to 2028 shows a steady decline, with volumes projected to decrease from 84.195 million kilograms in 2024 to 80.264 million kilograms in 2028. The forecasted decline aligns with a potential trend observed pre-2024, though specific data from 2023 is not provided for exact comparison. Across the forecast period, the year-on-year variation indicates a consistent, albeit slight, decrease in import volumes. Over these five years, the imports demonstrate a decreasing compound annual growth rate (CAGR), reflecting an average annual contraction in volume.
Future trends to watch include the impact of potential trade agreements, changes in consumer preferences towards alternative proteins, and any shifts in domestic production capabilities. Additionally, fluctuations in global market prices and environmental regulations could influence France's meat import demands and strategies.
