The COVID-19 pandemic affected economies and industries in various countries. Lockdowns, travel restrictions, and business shutdowns in North America, Europe, Asia Pacific (APAC), South & Central America, and the Middle East & Africa (MEA) hampered the growth of several industries, including the food & beverages industry. The shutdown of manufacturing units disrupted global supply chains, manufacturing activities, delivery schedules, and essential and nonessential product sales. Various companies witnessed delays in product deliveries and a slump in sales of their products in 2020. Moreover, the bans imposed by governments of various countries in Europe, Asia Pacific, and North America on international travel compelled companies to temporarily discontinue their collaboration and partnership plans. All these factors hampered various industries in 2020 and early 2021, thereby restraining the growth of various markets, including the juice concentrates market.
Before the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, the demand for juice concentrates was high due to increasing need for bakery products and rising production of different flavored products. However, manufacturing industries faced unprecedented challenges after the emergence of the pandemic in 2020. The manufacturers of juice concentrate experienced many issues due to supply chain constraints caused by nationwide lockdown, trade bans, and travel restrictions. The supply chain disruption created the storage of raw materials, which affected the production and distribution of juice concentrates, leading to increased prices. Further, there was a huge demand and supply gap due to the lockdown and travel restrictions.

Category InsightsBased on category, the juice concentrates market is bifurcated into organic and conventional. The conventional segment held a larger market share in 2022, and the organic segment is expected to register a higher CAGR during the forecast period. Conventional farming of fruits and vegetables allows the use of synthetic fertilizer, manure, compost, sewage sludge, and other soil amendments.

As a result, conventional farming is cheaper than organic farming. Hence, conventional juice concentrates are cheaper than organic ones.
