Earlier Report Observations

The Norwegian fresh pear market experienced a substantial contraction in volume from 2018 to 2023, declining from 17 694 t to 12 473 t. This downward trajectory was primarily fueled by a sharp and consistent fall in imports, which decreased by over 5 000 t over these six years.

Despite the overall market shrinkage, domestic pear production in Norway showed steady growth, rising from 415 t in 2019 to 636 t in 2023. However, this increase in local output remained too small to counterbalance the reduction in imported supply.

The market's decline was briefly interrupted by a modest rebound in 2021, but the downward trend resumed thereafter. By 2023, the market volume had reached its lowest point in the observed period, reflecting a significant shift in the supply structure.
