MARKET OVERVIEW- GLOBAL NUT PRODUCTS MARKET

A nut is a fruit that consists of a hard non -edible shell and a generally edible seed. Most nuts come from heels with lower ovaries. The growing inclination of consumers to plant gluten -free and gluten -free products that are associated with increasing health awareness should lead the world market for nuts. In addition, the increase in food demand, the increase in the popularity of nuts as a food additive and the increase in product introductions are some of the factors that promote the growth of the global Nut Products market. There has been a worldwide increase in the popularity of nut products with low calorie, low sugar, vegetable and low-fat properties; this increase is due to the fact that the majority of the world’s population follows a healthy and nutritious diet. Around the world, the health benefits of nut products have led to their widespread adoption in numerous applications. This factor is anticipated to provide ample new growth opportunities for the market over the upcoming years. 

MARKET DRIVERS 

The growing awareness of health benefits among consumers, as they are the richest source of vitamins, proteins, antioxidants, fiber and other essential minerals, is driving market growth. In addition, the growing development of the nut-based snack industry in developing economies such as India and China are further driving the market’s growth in recent years. Growing populations, coupled with increasing urbanization around the world and rising consumer disposable income, have led to an increase in nut consumption, which anticipated market growth. Additionally, the market is driven by the trend towards convenience foods such as nut snacks in developed regions. Additionally, manufacturers developing innovative new flavoured nut products have predicted market growth during the forecast period. In addition, constantly changing lifestyles and demographics, such as the increasing number of working women, have led to significant growth in the market. On the other side, rapid urbanization in developing countries is expected to give the market new opportunities for growth during the estimated time period. 

MARKET OPPORTUNITIES

The robust growth and promising potential of plant-based dairy substitutes and meat analogues have created significant opportunities for manufacturers of nut products. Key players such as Olam International and Barry Callebaut have already stepped up to address these attractive end-use pathways to gain an innovative edge for the foreseeable future. Apart from the food industry, non-food applications can also be a potential source of revenue for companies – nut ingredients are used in various industries such as cosmetics and pharmaceuticals. The cosmetics market encompasses a diverse population, among which the aging population constitutes a significant segment. Besides, the health benefits provided by nuts have gained major attention from consumers and this factor is expected to create new growth opportunities for the market over the forecast period. 

MARKET RESTRAINTS

The raw materials for nut-based products are agro-commodities which testify to great uncertainties in their prices and availability. Exotic and unusual nuts are harder to find, given their varying yields. Ingredient producers using nuts as a raw material need a carefully planned inventory management system, which is usually not the case, especially for small and medium-sized producers. Therefore, converting nuts into value-added products such as butter, pastes and fillings is becoming expensive. These high costs are passed on to producers of processed food and beverages, who ultimately pass them on to end users. It is one of the main limiting factors for the growth of the Nut Products market.

MARKET GROWTH CHALLENGES

One of the critical challenges for the growth of the market is quality and safety issues as the product travels through various supply chain crossings. Gaps in handling, distribution, transport and intermediate storage can have serious consequences for the overall quality of nut products. The nut supply chain consists of purchasing, processing, packaging and storage. Nuts (processed or unprocessed) are susceptible to contamination throughout the supply chain. Also, the stringent government rules and regulations and the high cost associated with nuts are essential challenges for the market’s growth.
