Earlier Report Observations

The Hungarian fresh currants and gooseberries market entered a period of sustained contraction from 2018 onward, with total volume falling from 4 771 tons in 2018 to 2 237 tons in 2023. This represented a decline of more than half over the six-year period, indicating a significant reduction in market activity.

The pace of decline intensified notably in the final two years of available data. Between 2021 and 2023, market volume dropped by 42%, with particularly sharp falls of 23% in 2022 and 25% in 2023. This acceleration marked a deepening of the market's downturn.

Domestic production, which constitutes the vast majority of supply, mirrored this downward trend, falling from 4 750 tons to 2 230 tons over the same interval. Import levels remained minimal throughout, never exceeding 30 tons annually, which underscores the market's reliance on local output.
