Market Growth Factors

The Egyptian government's strong support for agriculture through subsidies, training, and investments in technology significantly drives the fruits and vegetables market. One of the notable initiatives is the "Future of Egypt" project which aims to reclaim about 1.8 million hectares of land by 2030 and modernize irrigation systems to boost production. The government also targets reducing reliance on imports, saving $3.7 billion annually, and increasing agricultural exports by 20 to 25%, which directly stimulate domestic market growth.

Population growth and rising health consciousness are critical drivers. Egypt's population stood at 105.8 million as of early this year, with a continued albeit reduced growth rate. Increasing consumer awareness of health issues like obesity—affecting 44.7% of adult women and 25.9% of men—and diabetes enhances demand for fresh, nutrient-rich fruits and vegetables. This growing demand is propelling the market as consumers shift to healthier diets.

Technological advancements and improved supply chain infrastructure also contribute to market expansion. Developments such as the partnership between the Government of Egypt and the World Bank to promote climate-smart agriculture and digital innovations in farming practices enhance productivity and sustainability. Additionally, investments in freeze drying technologies by companies, enabling increased processing capacities (e.g., freeze drying output increase from 200 tons to 300 tons annually), reduce wastage and open new market opportunities, fostering growth.
