From 2014 to 2017, Austria's cocoa beans export volume remained flat at 1.0 thousand metric tons. In 2018, the export volume experienced a significant year-on-year increase of 100%, doubling to 2.0 thousand metric tons. This new level of 2.0 thousand metric tons persisted through 2023 without any further changes, resulting in a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 14.87% from 2019 to 2022. The forecasted data from 2024 to 2028 indicates that the export volume will remain at 2.0 thousand metric tons, reflecting a stable but stagnant trend with no expected growth.
Future trends to watch for:
- Potential changes in global demand for cocoa beans, which could impact export volumes.
- Trade policies and agreements that may influence Austria's position in the cocoa beans market.
- Developments in cocoa production techniques and sustainability practices that could affect supply chains.
