Posted on: Wednesday, 17 January 2007, 12:00 CST
Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/reports/c48639) has announced the addition of The Global Market for Organic Food & Drink: Business Opportunities & Future to their offering.
Organic is the fastest growing sector of the food industry with global sales approaching US $40 billion in 2006. High market growth rates are leading to supply shortages in sectors like fresh produce, meat, dairy and ingredients.
Undersupply is most evident in the North American region where empty retailer shelves have become the norm for some product categories. Several European countries are also experiencing supply shortages as consumer demand for organic foods has escalated. The organic meat & dairy sectors are the most adversely affected with imports coming into both regions from Latin America and Australasia.
Fresh produce is the leading organic product category. Fruit & vegetables like apples, oranges, carrots and potatoes are typical entry points for consumers buying organic products. Their fresh nature appeals to consumers seeking healthy & nutritious foods. Dairy products and beverages are the next most important organic product categories.
Produced by continuously researching the global organic food industry over 5 years, this report focuses on business opportunities and the future outlook. Detailed market & competitive information is given for the leading geographic regions.
Market information includes market size by countries and product categories, historic & projected market growth rates, revenue forecasts, market drivers & restraints. Competitive information includes supply-side overview, sales breakdown by channels, retailer analysis, profiles of leading companies (producers, importers and retailers). Other information includes organic certification & standards, consumer behaviour and future outlook.
The report highlights the business opportunities to existing producers, new entrants and exporters in the organic food industry.
