Agricultural product wholesalers contend with volatile crop yields and global commodity prices, changing government agricultural policies and changing customer demands. Over the five years through 2024, wholesalers’ revenue is forecast to grow at a compound annual rate of 2.9% to reach €489 billion. The Russia-Ukraine conflict has introduced severe disruption to global commodity supply chains, driving huge price rises for wheat, other grains and fertilisers. In the EU, the average price of agricultural products soared by 24% between 2021 and 2022, according to Eurostat - cereal price inflation of over 40% was a key driver of this. Put off by sky-high prices, major buyers of cereal-based feedstuffs have sought out alternatives, contributing to a drop in demand and driving a sharp drop in prices (-18.4%) in the UK over the year through September 2023, as shown by data from the Office for National Statistics. In 2024, wholesalers’ sales will be dampened by low business sentiment, but high prices will keep revenue growing – it’s expected to climb by 0.8%.
