In 2023, the import volume of coconuts and copra into France stood at 19.0 thousand metric tons. Forecasted data indicates a gradual increase: 20.0 thousand metric tons in 2024, 21.0 thousand metric tons in 2025-2026, and 22.0 thousand metric tons in 2027-2028. The year-on-year percentage variation shows a consistent positive trend with an increase from 2023 to 2024 and then steady increments. Specifically, there’s a 5.26% increase from 2023 to 2024 and around 4.76% increase observed from 2025 to 2028, showing sustained growth. The Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) over this five-year forecast period is approximately 3.04%, indicating moderate but steady growth in the import volume.
Future trends to watch for include potential impacts of global supply chain disruptions, climate change affecting production in key exporting countries, and changes in consumer preferences towards coconut-based products. Additionally, policies on trade tariffs and health trends promoting coconut as a superfood could further influence import volumes.
