Poland is Central and Eastern Europe’s largest market for food and beverage products. With a population of nearly 38 million people, Poland is a growing and viable market for U.S. food and agricultural products. Over 373,000 stores operate in Poland. In 2021 Poland’s real GDP growth reached 5.9 percent. Due primarily to the fallout from the Russian invasion of Ukraine, real GDP growth is expected to slow down to 3.9 percent in 2022.

The Polish food processing industry was restructured and mostly privatized during recent decades.

Sales growth in Poland for tree nuts, seeds and trail mix achieved five percent in 2017, the strongest year-on-year growth of all sweet and savory snack foods in the market.
