U.S. Fresh Produce Market Trends and Opportunities 2016-2021

Dublin, Oct. 04, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The "Fresh Produce: U.S. Market Trends and Opportunities" report has been added to Research and Markets' offering.

The research done projects volume consumption of fresh produce will grow annually through 2021. The market for produce has experienced moderate growth in recent years as consumers have sought novel and fresh foods amid trends toward healthy eating.

Additionally, vegetables and fruits are increasingly marketed as organic, non-GMO, and local, with new options available to consumers who look to environmental sustainability and nutritional content when purchasing foods. Fresh Produce: U.S. Market Trends and Opportunities identifies these and other trends influencing the fresh produce market, highlights key market opportunities, and reveals consumer attitudes that will help shape the market through 2021. Key players in the market - and the factors shaping their evolution - are also discussed.

Most of the population consumes fresh produce, although specific demographics can be targeted to boost sales. For instance, parents of young children want healthy foods to combat childhood obesity. Flexitarians are also a key market because they are likely to eat more fruits and vegetables than those who eat meat with every meal.
