In 2024, Estonia continued to rely heavily on neighboring countries such as Latvia and Lithuania, as well as Ukraine, Metropolitan France, and Germany for its pulses imports. Despite a high concentration with a high Herfindahl-Hirschman Index (HHI), the market experienced a negative compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of -3.42% from 2020 to 2024. The growth rate in 2024 also saw a significant decline of -22.13%, reflecting potential challenges and fluctuations in the pulses import market in Estonia.

Estonias pulses market is benefiting from the growing demand for plant-based proteins and sustainable agriculture. Pulses such as peas, beans, and lentils are increasingly being used in food products due to their high protein content and environmental benefits, as they require fewer resources to grow compared to traditional crops. The market is expanding as consumers in Estonia and across Europe seek healthier and more sustainable food options, making pulses an essential part of the countrys food landscape.
The pulses market in Estonia is growing as pulses gain popularity due to their nutritional value, which includes high protein and fiber content. As consumers become more health-conscious and adopt plant-based diets, pulses are becoming a staple ingredient in everyday diets. Additionally, the push for sustainable agriculture and climate-friendly food options is further promoting the consumption of pulses.
The Estonia Pulses Market faces challenges primarily due to the seasonal nature of pulse cultivation, which can lead to supply shortages. Moreover, climatic conditions, such as unpredictable weather patterns, can further exacerbate production risks. Competition from global markets also affects the pricing dynamics, making it challenging for local producers to remain competitive. Additionally, the need for specialized processing and storage facilities for pulses can drive up operational costs for farmers and processors, affecting overall profitability.
The governments focus on the pulses market revolves around self-sufficiency in food production and export competitiveness. Subsidies are offered to farmers adopting environmentally friendly practices, while policies aim to build resilient supply chains for both domestic and international markets.

Export potential enables firms to identify high-growth global markets with greater confidence by combining advanced trade intelligence with a structured quantitative methodology. The framework analyzes emerging demand trends and country-level import patterns while integrating macroeconomic and trade datasets such as GDP and population forecasts, bilateral import–export flows, tariff structures, elasticity differentials between developed and developing economies, geographic distance, and import demand projections. Using weighted trade values from 2020–2024 as the base period to project country-to-country export potential for 2030, these inputs are operationalized through calculated drivers such as gravity model parameters, tariff impact factors, and projected GDP per-capita growth. Through an analysis of hidden potentials, demand hotspots, and market conditions that are most favorable to success, this method enables firms to focus on target countries, maximize returns, and global expansion with data, backed by accuracy.
By factoring in the projected importer demand gap that is currently unmet and could be potential opportunity, it identifies the potential for the Exporter (Country) among 190 countries, against the general trade analysis, which identifies the biggest importer or exporter.
