Earlier Report Observations

The sunflower seeds market in Albania expanded consistently from 2018 to 2020, with volume growing from 1 019 t to 1 471 t. This upward trajectory was interrupted in 2021 when market size fell sharply to 786 t, a drop of 47% from the previous year. The market then recovered partially, reaching 808 t in 2022 and 1 180 t in 2023.

Production increases supported the initial growth, peaking at 1 259 t in 2020. However, output declined in subsequent years, falling to 770 t by 2023. Trade flows also shifted: imports, which had reached 212 t in 2020, plummeted to 19 t in 2022 before rebounding to 410 t in 2023. The notable export of 272 t in 2021 reduced domestic supply, contributing to that year's market contraction.
