An increasing awareness of the health benefits associated with consuming fresh vegetables and fruits is a significant driver. Consumers in the Middle East and Africa are adopting healthier lifestyles, which is boosting the demand for fresh produce rich in vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants.
- Urbanization and Changing Lifestyles
Rapid urbanization in the region is driving demand for convenient and readily available food options.

- Government Initiatives to Promote Agriculture
Governments in some Middle Eastern and African countries are actively promoting domestic agriculture to reduce reliance on imports and ensure food security. Supportive policies, subsidies, and investments in infrastructure are encouraging local production and distribution of vegetables and fruits.
Opportunities
- Increasing Export Potential
The Middle East and Africa have vast untapped potential for exporting fruits and vegetables to international markets. Favorable climate conditions in certain regions can support year-round production, enabling these countries to become significant players in the global export market.
