View PricingAnnual Sugar Consumption
Annual sugar consumption refers to the amount of sugar consumed by individuals or populations in a given year. It is commonly measured in terms of kilograms or pounds per capita, representing the average amount of sugar consumed per person.
Sugar consumption has been a highly debated topic due to its potential health effects. Excessive sugar consumption has been linked to various health problems, including obesity, type 2 diabetes, heart disease, and dental issues. Therefore, monitoring and understanding the patterns of annual sugar consumption is important for public health efforts and policy-making.
Global Annual Sugar Consumption
The global annual sugar consumption has been on a steady rise over the past few decades, driven by factors such as population growth, urbanization, and changing dietary habits. According to the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) of the United Nations, the global per capita sugar consumption increased from an average of 33.5 kilograms in 1961 to 50.1 kilograms in 2018.
However, it is important to note that the patterns of sugar consumption vary significantly across countries and regions. Developed countries tend to have higher sugar consumption rates compared to developing countries. For example, in the United States, the average annual sugar consumption per capita is around 61 kilograms, while in Sub-Saharan Africa, it is only about 15 kilograms.
Factors Influencing Sugar Consumption
Several factors influence the level of annual sugar consumption:
- Economic Factors: The economic status of a country or population plays a significant role in determining sugar consumption. Higher income levels often result in increased discretionary spending on sugary foods and beverages.
- Cultural and Dietary Habits: Different cultures and dietary habits can influence sugar consumption patterns. For example, countries with a tradition of sweet desserts often have higher sugar consumption rates.
- Marketing and Advertising: The pervasive marketing and advertising of sugary products can also contribute to increased sugar consumption. Advertisements targeting children have been particularly controversial.
- Food Availability and Accessibility: The availability and accessibility of sugary foods and beverages greatly impact consumption. Countries with a high number of fast food restaurants or a prominent sugary snack industry tend to have higher sugar consumption rates.
Impact on Health and Strategies for Reduction
Excessive sugar consumption can have detrimental effects on health. The World Health Organization (WHO) recommends limiting the intake of free sugars to less than 10% of total energy intake. This includes both added sugars and naturally occurring sugars.
To reduce annual sugar consumption and promote healthier diets, various strategies have been implemented:
- Food Labeling: Improved food labeling and packaging regulations can help consumers make more informed choices about the sugar content in products.
- Taxation: Some countries have implemented taxes on sugary drinks and snacks to discourage consumption and generate revenue for public health initiatives.
- Public Education: Educational campaigns and initiatives can raise awareness about the health risks associated with excessive sugar consumption and promote healthier alternatives.
- Food Industry Changes: Encouraging the food industry to reformulate products with lower sugar content or develop alternative products can help reduce sugar consumption.
By understanding annual sugar consumption patterns and implementing effective strategies, it is possible to mitigate the negative health impacts associated with excessive sugar intake and promote healthier eating habits worldwide.

This year, world sugar production is expected to rise by 3% to 193M tons. The growth will be encouraged by favorable weather conditions in most of the largest producing countries, as well as the providing exemptions on the neonicotinoid usage against plant diseases and blights in France, Germany and the UK. The drop in sugar production and shipments from Brazil will be offset by large volumes coming from Thailand, which will boost global exports by +2.6% y-o-y. The increased supply in the world market is to keep sugar prices relatively stable over the next two years.
