From 2011 to 2021, the price per kilogram of hams and cured pork shoulders in Finland showed fluctuations, peaking in 2021 at €8.16. A slight decline was noted in 2012, followed by variable increases and decreases over subsequent years. Recent trends indicate substantial growth with a significant price jump around 2019-2021. The year-on-year percentage change over this period shows a consistent upward trend, particularly strong in the last two years.
Forecasts for 2024 suggest continual moderate price increases due to factors like inflation, demand shifts, and supply chain dynamics. Key future trends to monitor include consumer preferences for sustainable products and potential regulatory changes influencing production costs.
