Earlier Report Observations
The market volume for homogenised composite food preparations in Bosnia and Herzegovina grew consistently from 405 tonnes in 2021 to 570 tonnes in 2024, an increase of over 40%. In value terms, the market expanded from 4.97 million US dollars to 7.12 million US dollars over the same period, indicating not only higher volume but also rising unit values or product mix changes.
Domestic production fluctuated between 79 and 105 tonnes annually from 2021 to 2024, while imports, which form the bulk of supply, rose steadily from 277 tonnes in 2018 to 508 tonnes in 2025.

The market's dependence on imports increased over the years, with import volumes more than doubling between 2018 and 2025. Despite some volatility in domestic output, the overall supply chain ensured continuous market growth, particularly noticeable in the sharp volume jumps between 2021-2022 and 2023-2024.
