Germany: Food Processing Ingredients

  |   Attaché Report (GAIN)

Germany is by far the biggest market for food and beverages in the European Union. The food processing industry represents the third-largest industry in Germany. In 2019, Germany produced an estimated USD 221.7 billion of processed food and drinks. When meeting EU standards, the following products have good sales potential on the German market: nuts, fish and seafood products, highly processed ingredients, dried fruits, sweet potatoes, bakery products, organic products, and pulses. COVID-19 related lock-down and physical distancing measures heavily impacted the German food sector, as well as shopping and consumption patterns of German consumers. Effects will be visible in next year’s report when the data from 2020 is evaluated.
