In 2023, France led the European export of homogenized composite food preparations for infant food or dietetic purposes in containers not exceeding 250 g, followed by Italy and Germany. Notable year-on-year growth was observed in Italy at 20.53% and Austria at 26.87%, while the Netherlands experienced a steep decline of 100%. Consistent improvements were recorded for Slovakia, Romania, and Lithuania, affirming their emerging roles. Meanwhile, Germany, the United Kingdom, and Denmark faced minor setbacks, suggesting potential structural challenges.
Future trends indicate an increased interest in sustainably packaged and health-conscious infant and dietetic foods, with a strong emphasis on organic ingredients. The impacts of regulatory changes and evolving consumer preferences towards nutritional transparency are significant areas to monitor in the European market. Additionally, digital channels and innovative packaging may drive growth and differentiation, while macroeconomic factors could influence production costs and export competitiveness.
