Earlier Report Observations

The Danish soya sauce market volume fluctuated between 1 300 and 1 500 tonnes from 2018 to 2021. A major shift occurred in 2022 when the market expanded sharply to 2 363 tonnes, establishing a new baseline.

Market volume remained elevated in the following years, at 2 300 tonnes in 2023 and 2 497 tonnes in 2024. This growth was underpinned by a sustained increase in imports, which rose from 1 830 tonnes in 2018 to 3 195 tonnes in 2024.

Local production remained minimal throughout the period, never surpassing 85 tonnes per year. Consequently, the net market volume was primarily shaped by the balance of rising imports and variable export flows.
