Italy: Food Processing Ingredients
Link to report:
The Italian food-processing industry continues to be highly fragmented, characterized by growing consolidation of smaller companies. In 2022 a gradual return to in-person work, study, and activities left consumers with less time or inclination for cooking and baking. On the other hand, confectionery, snack bars, ice cream, and pastries benefitted from a gradual return to normality. Italy depends almost entirely on raw material imports, most of which come from other EU countries.
