What Opportunities Could Fresh Figs Manufacturers Cash in on?

Demand for Health-based Food and Functional Food Products with Fresh Fig Ingredients has Increased

Nowadays, with changing lifestyles the prevalence of serious diseases has increased tremendously. This has led to the increased adoption of healthy diets and increased consumption of functional food with the recommended dietary allowance (RDA). The health benefits of consuming fresh figs have led to their increased inclusion in various food and beverages, in common households as well as in processing industries.

The demand for fresh figs from households is also increasing, as people are becoming aware of their associated health benefits. Also, surging health concerns have led to consumers opting for external supplements to obtain the required nutrients. This has increased the demand for functional and health-based food products such as protein bars, protein shakes, etc., which, in turn, has increased the demand for fresh figs from these industries.

Fluctuations in Weather Conditions Negatively Impact Fresh Figs Production, thus Increasing the Demand and Supply Gap

The climate is fluctuating across the globe, which has a paramount impact on agricultural output. The regional climate in Mediterranean countries is also fluctuating to a great extent. As fresh figs grow only once a year in a particular season, any adverse climatic conditions could negatively affect the cultivation of this fruit, and can also affect its quality. Also, fresh figs are prone to diseases, and thus, the effect of climate on the production of fresh figs is a key factor that affects supply.

Turkey, situated in the Mediterranean region, is one of the leading fig-producing countries in the world. Varying climatic conditions in this region are highly restraining production output and producing uncertainty in the fresh figs as well as the dried figs market. The production value of fresh figs in Turkey has been impacted by the fluctuating climate in the country, leading to a significant decline in the production of fresh figs.

However, many other regions have started growing fig trees, and this factor might help in reducing the overall demand-supply gap.

United States Market Value Share (2022) 17%

As per FMI’s analysis, the United States Fresh Figs market held a market value share of 17% in 2022. The growth is attributed to the higher demand for organic fruits along with the expansion of grocery delivery platforms. Also, organic fresh figs have a higher value in the global market as compared to conventional fresh figs.

This eliminates the organic property of the figs.

Organic fresh figs are also witnessing high demand due to the social media trends around organic products.
