From 2018 to 2022, the wood charcoal market in Dominica demonstrated consistent stability. Annual domestic production held steady at approximately 234 tons, with a slight reduction to 233 tons in 2022. Overall market volume, reflecting both local output and minor imports, remained near 234 tons throughout this period.

A notable change occurred in 2023 when import volumes jumped to 10.4 tons. This increase lifted the total market size to 243.4 tons, while domestic production continued at 233 tons.
