Earlier Report Observations

The Hungarian market for fresh or chilled beans contracted from 15 679 tons in 2018 to 11 286 tons in 2023, a 28% reduction over the six-year period. This downward trend was interrupted by a temporary increase in 2020 and a recovery in 2023, but the overall volume remained significantly lower than at the start.

Market size declined sharply in 2019, then stabilized slightly in 2020 before falling again in 2021 and 2022 to a low of 10 213 tons. The 2023 rebound to 11 286 tons represented a 10.5% year-on-year growth, though it did not fully offset previous losses.
