In 2023, the US imported a baseline amount of green tea in packages exceeding 3 kg. The forecast from 2024 to 2028 predicts a gradual decline in imports from 11.216 million kilograms in 2024 to 10.923 million kilograms in 2028. This equates to an average yearly decline of about 0.7%. The year-on-year percentage changes indicate a consistent downward trend, reflecting a decrease in demand or a shift in consumer preferences.
Future trends to watch for include:
- Emerging health trends influencing green tea demand.
- Shifts in global trade policies affecting tea imports.
- Changes in supply dynamics potentially altering import volumes.
