In 2023, France imported approximately 18.87 million kilograms of prepared or preserved strawberries. The forecast indicates a slight decline over the next five years, with imports decreasing by 0.35% by the end of 2028. The year-on-year variation shows a gradual reduction of about 0.35% annually, leading to a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of -0.35% over the forecasted period. This steady decline suggests a potential shift in consumer preferences or increased competition from domestic production.
Future trends to watch for include changes in consumer preferences towards fresh strawberries, potential trade regulations affecting import tariffs, and advancements in preservation technology that might alter demand dynamics. Monitoring these elements will be crucial for understanding the long-term trajectory of prepared strawberry imports in France.
