Tomato juice market in Germany

Earlier Report Observations

From 2018 to 2024, the German tomato juice market underwent a significant contraction in physical volume. The market size fell from 32.1 million liters in 2018 to 21.4 million liters in 2024, a reduction of over 30%. This decline was mirrored by a sharp drop in domestic production, which nearly halved from 32.8 million liters to 20.0 million liters, and a steady decrease in imports. A period of relative stability occurred between 2021 and 2023, with market volume fluctuating between 24.6 and 26.6 million liters, before a notable downturn in 2024.

In value terms, the market followed a different path. After declining from $27.8 million in 2018 to a low of $21.0 million in 2022, the market's value recovered to $24.2 million by 2024. This rebound in value against a backdrop of falling volume points to an increase in average prices or a shift toward higher-value products. Concurrently, export values, which had fallen steeply until 2021, began to recover, reaching $5.2 million in 2024.
