Anuga 2021 To Feature International Organic Products

A full spectrum of organic products that carry proof of a recognised organic certification, commonly found on the marketplace, awaits visitors in the specialised 'Anuga Organic' trade show at Anuga 2021, scheduled from 9 to 13 October.

The theme 'organic' has gained significance over the past few years due to consumers' growing awareness of health and the environment.

The global market for organic food and beverages and related innovations have experienced an additional boost due to the COVID-19 pandemic and inclination towards healthy, regional and natural products. 

According to a market survey by Global Industry Analysts Inc. (GIA), the international market for organic products, which was estimated to be worth US$198.1 billion in the year 2020, is anticipated to increase up to US$ 495.9 billion by 2027. 

An annual growth rate of 14.7% has been forecast for the fruit and vegetables segment alone.
