The import of fresh cut flowers and flower buds for bouquets to France is forecasted to show a decreasing trend from 2024 through 2028, with volumes moving from 36.857 million kilograms to 30.677 million kilograms. In 2023, the import volume was slightly above these projections but aligned with the forecasted downtrend.
The year-on-year decline highlights a consistent drop, averaging approximately 2% to 4% annually. The compounded annual growth rate (CAGR) over the five-year forecast period is set to average a decrease, indicating a persistent contraction in import volumes.
Looking ahead, key trends to monitor include shifts in consumer preferences towards locally sourced flowers, potential economic policies impacting imports, and sustainability concerns influencing international flower trade. These factors could further influence this sector's dynamics.
