Earlier Report Observations

From 2018 to 2021, the volume of the soups and broths market in Denmark fluctuated between 17 300 t and 17 800 t, showing relative stability. Consumer demand during this period was supported by a growing preference for convenient and health-conscious options, including ready-to-eat and plant-based products, reflecting a broader shift toward sustainable and organic consumption.

After 2021, the market volume declined, reaching a low of 16 586 t in 2022 before a partial recovery. Despite the drop in tonnage, the market value in monetary terms grew from $39.9 million in 2018 to $47.1 million in 2024. This increase in value was driven by product innovation and premiumization, notably the 2022 launch of gluten-free and artificial ingredient-free soups as well as organic canned soups with eco-friendly packaging, which expanded the plant-based and clean-label segments.
