The import of fresh cherries to Germany is forecasted to demonstrate a steady year-on-year increase from 2024 to 2028, starting at 79.688 million kilograms in 2024 and reaching 84.237 million kilograms in 2028. Assuming we are in 2024, the year 2023 saw actual imports of 78.55 million kilograms. This marks a consistent upward trend in imports.
Year-on-year variations for this period indicate a positive growth trajectory:
- 2025 over 2024: 1.5% increase
- 2026 over 2025: 1.4% increase
- 2027 over 2026: 1.4% increase
- 2028 over 2027: 1.3% increase
The compound annual growth rate (CAGR) over the five-year period from 2024 to 2028 demonstrates an average annual increase of approximately 1.4%.
Future trends to watch for include potential changes in global trade policies, variations in cherry production due to climate change, and shifts in consumer preferences towards organic or sustainably sourced produce, which could impact import volumes and sources.
