The import of sugar confectionery pastes to Germany is projected to slightly decrease from 14.669 million kilograms in 2024 to 14.635 million kilograms in 2028. This forecast suggests a marginal downward trend over the five-year period. The year-on-year decrease is minimal, averaging annually as a cumulative average growth rate (CAGR). Considering 2023 as the baseline, the stagnant nature of imports over the coming years indicates a stable, albeit slightly declining demand.
Future trends to watch include:
- Changes in consumer preferences favoring healthier alternatives could impact the import volume.
- Evolving regulatory frameworks in the European Union might affect import dynamics.
- Fluctuations in global sugar prices and trade policies could influence import volumes.
