In 2023, Spain led the global export market for fresh or chilled cabbage lettuce with exports valued at $474.05 million, followed by the United States at $112.15 million and the Netherlands with $98.043 million. Among notable year-on-year changes, the country with the highest growth was Morocco with a significant increase of 36.57%, followed by Moldova with a substantial growth rate of 229.94%, albeit from a low base. Conversely, some countries saw a decline in their exports, notably Austria with a decrease of 22.72%. Belgium, France, and others also faced downtrends.
Future trends to watch for include the potential expansion of exports from smaller markets such as Moldova, which showed significant growth, as well as shifts in European markets due to evolving agricultural policies and trade agreements. Moreover, demand shifts in Asia and North America could impact export dynamics, with potential gains for countries able to meet growing demand sustainably.
