The demand for raw animal fats in the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland is forecasted to show a slight downward trend from 2024 to 2028, dropping from 168 thousand metric tons in 2024 to 166 thousand metric tons in 2028. This represents a modest decrease of approximately 0.6% per annum on average. The data reflects a market that is largely stable but experiencing a slight decline in demand over this period.
Future trends to watch for:
- Increasing consumer awareness and preference for plant-based alternatives could further dampen demand.
- Potential changes in dietary guidelines or health trends might impact consumer choices related to animal fats.
- Economic factors such as disposable income and inflation could also influence market demand.
