The import of dried apricots to France is projected to reach 8.7481 million kilograms in 2024, indicating a continuous upward trend from previous years. The forecast reflects steady growth, with expected imports increasing to 9.0475 million kilograms by 2028. The consistent year-on-year percentage growth suggests a slow yet stable increase in demand. Given these forecasts, the compound annual growth rate (CAGR) between 2024 and 2028 would indicate a modest upward trend in imports.

Future trends to watch for include:

Potential shifts in consumer preferences towards healthier snacking options, which could boost demand.
Global supply chain challenges or geopolitical factors affecting apricot-producing regions might impact future import levels.
Emerging markets for dried fruits in other European countries that could influence France’s import dynamics.
