The United Kingdom was the strongest growth market between January and April, with exports up by €778 million (+4%), mainly due to higher cocoa product prices. Exports to Switzerland also rose, by €467 million (+11%).
EU agri-food imports reached €16.2 billion in April 2025, up 8% year-on-year but down 4% on the previous month. The biggest increases came from Côte d’Ivoire (+€1.4 billion, +71%, due to the rise in cocoa prices), China (+€806 million, +29%) and Canada (+€722 million, +90%).
