In 2024, India continues to dominate the global centrifugal sugar consumption share at 17.03 thousand metric tons, demonstrating a 2.1% increase from 2023. China and the United States follow with consumption values of 8.65 and 6.4 thousand metric tons, respectively, although China's consumption slightly decreased by 0.38% year-on-year. Brazil, reporting a 4.91 thousand metric tons consumption, experienced a significant decline of 3.65%, while Indonesia's consumption rose by 2.29% to 4.41 thousand metric tons. Noteworthy growth was observed in Thailand (5.3%), Vietnam (9.63%), Ethiopia (15.25%), Laos (17.89%), Lebanon (16.11%), and Azerbaijan (17.61%).

Future trends to watch include the impact of agricultural policies, climate change, and technological advancements on sugar production and consumption. Growth in emerging markets like Vietnam and Ethiopia, coupled with rising consumption in populous countries such as India and Indonesia, are likely to drive global trends. Environmental sustainability and health trends may also influence shifting consumption patterns over the next few years.
