In 2024, Latvia continued to rely heavily on calcium carbide imports from Lithuania and Poland. The high Herfindahl-Hirschman Index (HHI) indicates a concentrated market. With a modest compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 0.46% from 2020 to 2024, the industry experienced a significant decline in growth rate from 2023 to 2024 at -59.47%. This trend suggests potential challenges or shifts in the market dynamics that importers and industry players should monitor closely for future strategic decisions.
The Calcium carbide market in Latvia is projected to grow at a stable growth rate of 0.51% by 2027, within the Europe region led by Germany, along with other countries like United Kingdom, France, Italy and Russia, collectively shaping a dynamic and evolving market environment driven by innovation and increasing adoption of emerging technologies.
