Preserving food and vegetables using natural preservatives and additives, to extend their shelf lives, is a practice embraced by our ancestors since the beginning of time. Modern processing units, too, work on the same lines, with few adaptions here and there. The processed fruit and vegetable market (Markt für verarbeitetes Obst und Gemüse), currently valued at USD 74,134.8 million, holds prospects of a bright future in the coming years.
The internet and eCommerce boom in emerging economies has made the general population come across a plethora of foreign fruits and vegetables from international marketplaces. This is said to take the market to a staggering USD 107,500.4 million by the year 2034. Countries like India, China, Spain, Egypt, Tunisia, etc., which are known for their high-quality fruits and vegetables, are some of the most lucrative markets.
The processed fruit and vegetable market is currently rising in the sustainability wave, with companies embracing sustainable harvesting, procuring, processing, and packaging of processed fruits and vegetables. The market is slated to develop at a CAGR of 3.80% during the forecasted period. Besides this, consumer demand to eat certain fruits throughout the year is also augmenting the market growth in the past few years.
“There are still a lot of concerns regarding the nutritional values of processed fruits and vegetables. Companies in the market must plan their marketing strategies accordingly so that they win back the trust of the general populace again”, opines an FMI analyst.
