Qatar Fruit and Vegetable Market Analysis
The Qatar Fruits And Vegetables Market size is estimated at USD 685.23 million in 2024, and is expected to reach USD 837.21 million by 2029, growing at a CAGR of 4.10% during the forecast period (2024-2029).
The increase in the adoption of advanced farming technologies and conducive government policies supporting domestic fruit and vegetable production are some factors driving the market growth in the country. Over the past few years, Qatar has imported fruits and vegetables from countries such as India, the United States, Iraq, China, Pakistan, and the Netherlands to meet domestic demand. To overcome this, the country aims to achieve agricultural self-sufficiency by encouraging farmers to adopt advanced techniques that support local production and increase self-reliance.
Many companies are venturing into domestic fruits and vegetable cultivation by incorporating advanced farming technologies to make them available to consumers year-round and move toward less dependency on trade imports. For instance, VFarms, a member of Qatar Science & Technology Park (QSTP), showcased its new high-tech indoor cultivation facilities promoting eco-friendly farming in Qatar at Expo 2023 Doha. The facility enables farmers to grow crops without external water supply and harvest water from the atmosphere using solar energy. This facility helps in the year-round cultivation of crops, mainly vegetables, berries, and others, irrespective of seasonal and climatic variations.
