In 2023, the demand for pineapples in the US stood at approximately 1.66 million metric tons. Forecasts for 2024 indicate that this demand will remain constant at 1.66 million metric tons. From 2025 through 2027, demand is expected to slightly decline and stabilize around 1.65 million metric tons, eventually decreasing to 1.64 million metric tons by 2028. This suggests a flat to slight downward trend in pineapple demand over the coming years.

Future trends to watch for include:

Shifts in consumer preferences towards exotic or tropical fruit blends, potentially impacting standalone pineapple demand.
Changes in domestic production and imports driven by weather patterns and international trade policies.
Innovations in processed pineapple products that may influence overall demand.
