The global apple trade continues to grow, with countries importing large volumes to meet consumer demand.
In 2024, Germany emerged as the top apple importing country in the world.
Known for its high-quality standards and love for fresh produce, Germany imported over 800,000 metric tons of apples.
The majority of imports come from Italy, France, and Poland.
Apples remain one of the most popular fruits in Germany, used in everything from snacks to traditional desserts.
The country's cold climate limits domestic production, making imports essential.
This demand drives strong international trade partnerships.
Other top importers include the UK, Russia, and India.
With health consciousness rising, apple imports are expected to grow further in coming years.
