China's shelled almonds domestic consumption is forecasted to grow consistently from 2024 to 2028, starting at 182.85 thousand metric tons and reaching 216.3 thousand metric tons. This sustained growth indicates a robust annual increase, reflecting growing consumer demand and possibly improved almond-based product availability. The average year-on-year growth hovers around 4.3% per annum over these years. In 2023, consumption stood at 175.19 thousand metric tons, marking a strong uptrend entering the forecast period.
