The road freight volume of meat products retail in specialized stores in France stood at 9.19 Million Tonne Kilometers in 2023. Forecasts indicate a consistent decline over the next five years, with volumes expected to decrease to 7.96 Million Tonne Kilometers by 2028. The year-on-year variation reflects a decrease of 2.8% from 2024 to 2025, followed by further reductions by approximately 2.8% annually thereafter. The compound annual growth rate (CAGR) over the forecast period is -2.7%, suggesting an overall contraction in this sector's road freight volume.
Future trends to watch for include:
- Changes in consumer preferences towards plant-based diets, potentially reducing meat product demand.
- Rising fuel costs may further impact freight volumes by increasing transportation costs.
- Potential regulatory changes targeting carbon emissions might influence logistics strategies and efficiency.
