Earlier Report Observations

The market for starch-manufacture residues in Syria expanded from 1 074 tons in 2018 to 1 454 tons in 2023, despite significant fluctuations. The initial rise to 1 414 tons in 2019 was primarily driven by increased activity in the textile industry, a key consumer sector, which boosted demand for these by-products.

Market volume contracted to 1 214 tons in 2020 as economic sanctions and rising raw material prices severely deteriorated textile manufacturing. The decline continued to 1 162 tons in 2021, hindered by widespread war remnants and landmines that disrupted industrial operations across the country.

Recovery began in 2022, with the market reaching 1 305 tons alongside broader growth in Syria's mining and manufacturing GDP. The upward trend accelerated to 1 454 tons in 2023, supported by the national program to rehabilitate industrial zones and a policy of import substitution aimed at stimulating domestic production.
