Asia-Pacific to Drive Processed Food & Vegetable Market
The processed food & vegetable market in Asia-Pacific was estimated to be USD 137,507 million in 2017 and is expected to reach USD 193,308 million in 2021, growing at a CAGR of 8.9%.Canned fruits & vegetables are the primary drivers of this segment, owing to their high demand in the market. If packed usually, these products may last only a few days, as chopped fruits and vegetables turn brown. Modified atmosphere packaging can have a dramatic effect on the browning of cut fruits and vegetables, which is a result of oxidation reaction brought by the release of enzymes. In these cases, having a mixture of nitrogen and carbon dioxide in packaging with no oxygen can prevent browning for several days. This could increase the shelf life of the product to as long as eight days, whereas under air it would remain fresh for four to five days. Furthermore, consumer health consciousness, health benefits, and competitive prices of food products are the key influencers that are making this market to grow lucratively.
