The European Union's apple production volume reached 11.5 million tonnes in 2020, making apples one of the top 5 most traded fruits in Europe with a total trade value of €2,270 million. The largest demand for imported apples comes from Germany and the United Kingdom. In 2020, Germany alone produced 973,000 tonnes of apples, accounting for approximately 70% of the total production. France stands out with an apple consumption of nearly 25 kg per capita, far exceeding the European average of 15.4 kg.
The median equivalised disposable income in the EU reached 18 706 purchasing power standards (PPS) per inhabitant in 2022, marking an increase from the 2021 figure of 18 011 purchasing power standards. Moreover, in 2021, the average per capita purchasing power in Europe was €15,055. With the rise in disposable incomes, consumers now have greater financial flexibility to allocate towards non-essential items, such as alcoholic beverages like cider. Consequently, this has resulted in heightened sales as consumers exhibit a greater willingness to explore new products and premium offerings.
There is a growing demand among consumers for beverages that utilise natural and organic ingredients. This trend has resulted in an increase in the production of ciders crafted from organic apples and free from artificial additives. Additionally, cider, being a naturally gluten-free option, attracts individuals with gluten sensitivities or celiac disease, which corresponds with wider health trends.
