The forecast for Germany's import of salted, dried, or smoked swine hams and shoulders from 2024 to 2028 shows a declining trend. Starting at 911.74 thousand kilograms in 2024, there is a consistent reduction in volume, reaching 809.44 thousand kilograms by 2028. This reflects a 3.02% decrease year-on-year from 2024 to 2025 and a 2.94% average annual decline over the five-year period from 2024 to 2028.
Future trends to watch for include:
- Shifts in consumer preferences towards alternative protein sources potentially accelerating the decline.
- Trade regulations and tariffs impacting the cost and volume of imports.
- Global supply chain disruptions affecting product availability and pricing.
