Abr. 12, 2024Italia: US$ 36.000 millones alcanzan las importaciones de ingredientes para elaborar alimentos
In 2023, Italy’s imports of consumer-oriented products were $35.7 billion, of which 85 percent originating from
other EU-27 member states. Imports from the EU-27 were primarily dairy products, meat, and fruits and vegetables.
The Italian food-processing industry continues to be highly fragmented, characterized by a growing consolidation of smaller companies. The leading players tend to employ multichannel strategies, which have helped them to offset food service losses with higher sales in the retail channel during the COVID19 pandemic.
Consumer foodservice in Italy continued on the path to recovery in 2023 with transaction value exceeding pre-pandemic levels while the volume of transactions also continued to grow. However, elevated inflation hit the market hard in 2022 and 2023 with the cost of living rising sharply as consumer prices rocketed. This situation forced many consumers to reduce their discretionary spending in order to focus on their primary needs.
