The report includes an in-depth analysis of the Middle East and Africa Dried Fruits Market, including market size and trends, product mix, distribution channels, and supplier analysis. Dried fruits provide a concentrated source of vitamins, minerals, and fiber, making them a wholesome and practical substitute for fresh fruits. They are made by using different techniques, like sun-drying, dehydration, or freeze-drying, to extract the water content from ripe fruits. Fruits that have undergone this preservation process have a longer shelf life and more intense natural tastes, making for a sweet, chewy snack that still has a lot of the nutrients from the original fruit. Figs, dates, raisins, apricots, and cranberries are common kinds, and each has a distinct flavour and nutritional makeup. Because of their great mobility, dried fruits are highly valued for on-the-go snacking, trekking, and adding to baked goods and trail mix.
- Sun-Maid Growers of California and Lil's Drug Store Products entered into a deal in August 2019. As a result of the deal, Lil'Drug became the sole distributor of the Sun-Maid brand in the convenience channel.
- In November 2019, Ocean Spray formed a partnership with HelloFresh, the world leader in meal kits, to supply dried cranberries.
Market Opportunities and Challenges
Opportunities: Increased benefits associated with dried fruit alternatives are driving corporate demand in the Middle East and Africa. Increased customer health awareness benefits the MEA dry fruit market as well. Furthermore, the expansion of R&D to introduce innovations regarding its uses in various product lines fuels the market's growth.
