The retail sales value of food products in Hungary increased gradually over the observed period of time. In 2022, food retail sales totaled 4.4 trillion forints, which accounted for nearly 26 percent of the country’s total retail sales.
Food consumption
Considering that typical Hungarian cuisine is predominantly based on meat and dairy products, it comes as no surprise that in 2020, 84 percent of Hungarians ate poultry meat regularly, and 67 percent of them consumed dairy products often. Over the past years, per capita meat consumption had increased in the country, reaching 69 kilograms as of 2019. Bread also plays an important role in Hungarians’ diet, as in 2020, the average per capita consumption totaled 35 kilograms.
