Blueberries Market Drivers and Opportunities

Rising Demand for Clean Label Products and Organic Blueberries

The demand for clean label products and organic blueberries is growing with the evolving consumer preferences for transparent, nutritious, and sustainable products. With the growing awareness of dietary choices, consumers are seeking minimally processed products that include natural ingredients and are free from artificial additives. Clean label products generally include ingredients that align with consumer preference for authenticity. Further, organic blueberries provide a perception of healthy and environment-friendly grown varieties. Health-conscious consumers demand clean label and organic foods, including blueberries. Organic farming practices often emphasize soil health, while organic blueberries are recognized as a sustainable alternative to conventionally grown options. In the food and beverages industry, clean label products and organic blueberries are highly incorporated into a broad range of products such as snacks, beverages, breakfast cereals, baked goods, and dairy products.

According to the Center for the Promotion of Imports, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Germany, Denmark, Austria, and Luxembourg were the largest markets for retail sales of organic food in Europe in 2022. The rise of plant-based diets and vegan diets has contributed to the demand for clean label and organic blueberries. With the shift in consumer demand toward plant-based and minimally processed food, organic blueberries are gaining popularity as a natural and plant-based ingredient. Plant-based snacks, smoothie bowls, vegan desserts, and fortified beverages are incorporated with organic blueberries to maintain the clean label appeal of the product. Thus, the increasing demand for clean label products and organic blueberries fuels the growth of the blueberries market.

Government Initiatives and Funding for Blueberry Production

Governments of major blueberry-producing countries are implementing multiple policies, financial incentives, campaigns, and research programs, especially to enhance productivity and improve quality. Such government initiatives aim at boosting domestic production and enhancing the country's position as an exporter of blueberries worldwide. In the US, the Federal Government has implemented programs to support blueberry growers. In November 2023, the US Department of Agriculture funded a US$ 497,827 grant under the Agriculture and Food Research Initiative for the project titled "Expanding Southern Highbush Blueberries to Underserved Regions of Southeastern US." The project was conducted by Auburn University professors and Alabama Agricultural Experiment Station researchers.

In August 2024, the government of Australia granted ~US$ 100,000 for the development of its robotic blueberry picking device that will reduce labor costs and increase the yield efficiency of produce. In addition, Peruvian blueberries benefit from the US-Peru Free Trade Agreement, allowing Peru to export tariff-free blueberries to the US. The governments also collaborate with international agricultural organizations to provide training and technical assistance to farmers to boost blueberry productivity and quality. Thus, government initiatives and funding for blueberry production are expected to create lucrative opportunities for the blueberries market during the forecast period.
