Cheese benchmarks remained under a positive tone in week 12 (March 19), although weekly gains have moderated compared to the previous week. Mozzarella exhibited the highest growth, while Gouda and Edam grew consistently at a more moderate pace. A more stable trend was observed in the Cheddar complex and Naturally Ripened Gouda. Despite the weekly correction in Emmentaler prices, the trend over the previous weeks is positive. Contributors underline a robust demand as a driver of the increasing prices, although buyers appear to be covered in the short term.
