**Greek Imports of Industrial Enzymes See Slight Decline**
**Industrial enzymes imports into Greece decrease due to supply chain issues and higher prices**
• Greek industrial enzyme imports totaled 1,500 MT in May, down 2.5% from April.
• The decline is attributed to ongoing supply chain disruptions affecting major suppliers in Asia.
• Average import price for industrial enzymes rose by 4.3% year-over-year to $6,200 per metric ton.
Greece’s industrial enzyme imports have been impacted by the ongoing global supply chain crisis and rising prices of raw materials. The country’s manufacturing sector continues to rely heavily on these enzymes for various applications, including textiles and food processing. As a result, importers are seeking alternative suppliers in Europe to mitigate the risks associated with international trade.
