Pineapple Market Analysis by Mordor Intelligence

The Pineapple Market size is estimated at USD 11.96 billion in 2025 and is projected to reach USD 13.94 billion by 2030, at a CAGR of 3.20% during the forecast period. This projection masks brisk expansion in premium fresh-cut and luxury varieties that offset slower growth in conventional bulk trading. Resilient supply chains, cultivar innovation, and blockchain traceability enable leading growers and marketers to defend margins despite volatile freight costs and stricter residue regulations. Automation in packinghouses reduces labor dependence and underpins premium positioning while rising disposable income in the Asia-Pacific and the Middle East lifts overall demand. Organic cultivation is the fastest-growing farming method, attracting price premiums as retailers tighten their sustainability requirements and consumers reward ethical sourcing.

Key Report Takeaways

  • By farming method, conventional production held 94.10% of the pineapple market share in 2024, whereas organic farming is projected to grow at 9.1% CAGR by 2030.
  • By region, Asia-Pacific led with a 44.80% revenue share in 2024 and is projected to expand at a 4.80% CAGR between 2025-2030.

Segment Analysis

By Farming Method: Conventional Scale Versus Organic Momentum

Conventional farming remained the dominant production method, accounting for 94.10% of the pineapple market size in 2024. Large plantations in Costa Rica, the Philippines, and Indonesia rely on high-yield MD2 hybrids, drip irrigation, and long-term retailer contracts to sustain volume efficiency. Their scale confers bargaining power on packaging suppliers and facilitates direct chartering of refrigerated vessels, which protects margins when container rates spike. Integrated growers deploy blockchain traceability and residue-testing laboratories to keep shipments within tightening European and North American compliance limits. Even as input costs rise, the segment’s sheer weight in global supply ensures processors and juice blenders continue to prioritize conventional fruit for baseline formulations.

Organic cultivation is the fastest-expanding niche, with the pineapple market size for certified farms projected to grow at a 9.1% CAGR between 2025 and 2030. Life-cycle analyses show an 87% cut in Global Warming Potential and an 89% drop in Eutrophication Potential compared with conventional fields, supporting retail premiums above 20%. Programs such as Dole’s Certified Organic Pineapple integrate composting, biological pest control, and manual weeding to meet USDA and EU standards, bolstering brand equity in wellness aisles. As retailers move toward scope-3 emission targets, verified organic supply is projected to outpace overall demand, tightening availability and sustaining price differentiation.

Geography Analysis

Asia-Pacific owned 44.80% of global revenue in 2024 and is projected to post a 4.80% CAGR by 2030. Indonesia’s May 2025 access to the US market alters competitive dynamics, enabling Southeast Asian exporters to contest Costa Rica’s dominance. The Philippines bounced back to 560,000 metric tons of exports with 4% growth, supported by robust demand from China. India’s outbound shipments leaped 83% in fiscal 2023-24, though the country still consumes most of its harvest domestically. China absorbs up to 920,000 metric tons annually, driven by rising household incomes and a growing preference for fresh-cut fruit.

North America is the largest importing bloc, with the United States spending USD 932.39 million on fresh fruit in 2023, translating into 5.11% value growth. Costa Rica supplied 86.58% of that volume, yet importers actively court new entrants to diversify risk. Mexico’s Tabasco output fell 35% under drought stress, revealing climate exposure in traditional sources of production. Fresh Del Monte generated 61% of its pineapple sales in North America during 2024, underscoring the region’s profit significance.

Europe remains the top processed fruit market, responsible for 47% of global imports. Germany alone purchased 1.86 million metric tons of canned produce in 2022, including large volumes of pineapple from Indonesia, Thailand, Kenya, and the Philippines. Fyffes moved crownless pineapples into European retail channels, enabling 30% more fruit per container and lowering emissions. The EU Packaging and Packaging Waste Regulation mandates fully recyclable materials by 2030, rewarding suppliers that adopt returnable plastic crates and pulp-based trays. These rules raise the capital threshold for entry yet support premium pricing for compliant exporters.
