The US consumption of dehydrating vegetables stood at 13.70 pounds in 2023. As we move forward to the forecasted years, a gradual decline is anticipated, moving from 13.62 pounds in 2024 to 13.53 pounds by 2028. This indicates a steady decrease of approximately 0.15% to 0.17% annually.
The Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) over these five years is expected to hover around -0.16%, reflecting a slight downtrend. This suggests a marginal yet consistent drop in consumption each year.
Future trends to watch include potential shifts in consumer preferences towards fresh alternatives or variations in supply and demand factors like advances in dehydration technology or changes in dietary recommendations, which could impact these projections.
