The import forecast for corks and stoppers not intended for sparkling wine, made of agglomerated cork to France, indicates a steady growth from 2024 to 2028. Beginning at 10.707 million kilograms in 2024, the import volume is expected to rise to 11.822 million kilograms by 2028. Compared to 2023, where the actual import volume was lower, this continuous annual increase reflects a stable market demand and a consistent growth pattern. The year-on-year growth rate from 2024 onwards averages around 2.5%, with a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of approximately 2.5% over the projected five-year period.

Future trends to watch for include:

The potential impact of environmental sustainability practices on supply chains, which may affect the production of agglomerated cork.
Possible shifts in market demand due to changes in the wine industry's cork usage preferences.
Monitoring of economic factors and trade policies that may influence import dynamics and market stability.
