The import of potato starch to Italy shows a steady upward trend from 2024 to 2028. In 2023, the import volume was recorded at 49.4 million kilograms. From 2024 onwards, forecasts predict a consistent increase of approximately 1.5% to 2% per year, culminating in 53.12 million kilograms by 2028. This reflects a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of around 1.5% over these five years.

Future trends to monitor include:

Potential impacts of climate change on potato yields and starch production globally.
Changes in Italy's food processing industry demand for potato starch.
Innovation in starch substitutes and potential import diversification.
Trade policy developments within the European Union that could affect supply chains.
