Earlier Report Observations

The Danish fresh cherries market expanded in the early period, with market volume reaching 5 719 tons in 2019. This growth was supported by a significant 20% increase in cherry imports in 2018, indicating rising domestic demand, while exports surged by 80% the same year, reflecting growing international interest in Danish products.

Market volume then contracted sharply to 4 233 tons in 2020 and further to 3 909 tons in 2021. This decline coincided with a slight reduction in imports after their peak, as import volumes fell slightly in 2020 and by 3% in 2021. The average import price also rose by 2.1% to 3 845 USD per ton in 2021, likely making cherries less affordable and contributing to lower consumption.

A recovery followed in 2022, with market volume jumping to 5 146 tons, though it fell again to 4 646 tons in 2023. The latter year saw increased health consciousness and demand for organic and sustainable products globally, which may have influenced Danish consumer preferences and market dynamics.
