The European export market for tapioca and starch substitutes in 2023 was dominated by Italy, with nearly four times the volume compared to its closest competitor, the Netherlands. The Netherlands and France also made significant contributions. Most notable growth rates were observed in Denmark, with a remarkable 135.04% increase year-on-year. Sweden and Belgium also saw strong increases, while the UK and Poland experienced notable declines. Over the past five years, a consistent annual growth rate was seen across several countries, albeit some fluctuating market dynamics.
Looking forward, countries like Denmark and Belgium may continue to emerge as strong players if their growth trajectories persist. Markets such as Hungary show promising expansion potential, while nations like the UK and Poland need to address their declining volumes. The overall European market is expected to gradually increase, driven by health trends and rising demand for gluten-free products. Monitoring shifts in supply chain dynamics and consumer preferences will be critical to predict future movements in the market.
