Earlier Report Observations

The Latvian yoghurt market volume followed a volatile path from 2018 to 2023, beginning with a steady decline from 27 283 tonnes to 24 988 tonnes over the first three years.

This downward trend was interrupted by a slight recovery to 25 700 tonnes in 2021, which was swiftly reversed by a dramatic 28% contraction to 18 620 tonnes in 2022.

A strong rebound of over 21% followed in 2023, raising the market volume to 22 590 tonnes, yet it did not return to the levels seen prior to the sharp 2022 drop.
