The canned fruits market is projected to register a CAGR of 4.16% during the forecast period, 2022-2027.
The driving factors for canned fruits include increased shelf life of the fruits due to better usage of food preservation methods, an increase in the rate of urbanization, busy lifestyles, and a surge in demand for convenience foods among other factors. Also, advancements in canning technologies have also attracted a larger consumer base in the region. For instance, according to the Institute of Food Technologists organization, canned fruit products are currently packaged in multilayer barrier plastic cups with flexible, peelable heat-sealing lids. These are allegedly more consumer-friendly than small metal cans with full-panel easy-open cans. An increase in nuclear households and rising disposable incomes of households have led to changes in the food consumption habits of consumers, with convenience foods finding a major inclination among consumers.
With the rise in the number of working women across the region, and the need to consume fruits as part of a daily diet, the market for canned fruits is growing in North America. For instance, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, in 2021, about 71.75 million women were employed in the United States. This is an increase from the previous year, when 69.23 million women were employed. Due to the daily hassle of executing office and hometasks, working women prefer prefer canned fruits in oder to save cooking time as well as consume healthy food, boosting the market of the product.
However, the availability of counterfeit & adulterated packaged canned fruits is posing restraints over the forecast period.
North America Canned Fruits Market Trends
This section covers the major market trends shaping the North America Canned Fruits Market according to our research experts:
Rising trend of on-the-go consumption
Due to busier lifestyles and increased consumer demand for healthy food consumption, there is a hike in the trend of grabbing nutritious items such as fruits on the way to work, which is boosting the market growth of canned fruits. The greater purchasing power and willingness to spend more on convenience, premium, and organic foods have been propelling the demand for canned fruits. For instance, peaches season in the United States peaks between June and August, but canned peaches are very convenient and available throughout the year, irrespective of the season.
Consumers are increasingly choosing products from the shelves that offer convenience to them in their daily routines. For canned products, this means that easy-to-open lids on cans are used more and more often in the trade of canned fruits. For instance, Del Monte Foods, Inc. (DMFI) in the United States, which offers various canned fruits accounted for USD 1.5 billion in revenues, or 70% of the total group sales, driven by branded retail sales growth.
There has been a marked shift in consumer lifestyles due to the change in dietary habits and economic prosperity, thereby, leading to increased consumer spending on healthy and premium food. To go in line with the ongoing trends, the companies have been producing premium variants of organic canned fruits, speciality canned fruits and no sugar added canned fruits. For instance, in May 2022, Del Monte announced that it is to expand its organic fresh-cut fruit production in the United States and Canada to allow for added retail convenience.
Supermarkets/hypermarkets are among the dominant channels
Supermarkets/hypermarkets are among the dominant distribution channel for the sales of canned fruits as they create a single platform for different products to cater to the demand for the products in the market. The demand for canned fruits is witnessed in Tier I, Tier II, and Tier II cities primarily across the region, hence urban consumers in the market happen to choose supermarkets/hypermarkets as their primary choice for purchasing day-to-day groceries and food products on a whole at once in a week/month or so. For instance, according to the US Census Bureau, in 2021, United States supermarket and grocery store sales amounted to about USD 766 billion. This is more than USD 100 billion that was generated back in 2019 which amounted to USD 660.22 billion. This resulted in propelling the sales of products like canned fruits as they are preferred mostly for their extended shelf life and convenience.
The availability of various brands has been a key factor in increasing consumer preferences. Also, supermarkets have different shelves for different canned fruits such as peaches, pears, and pineapples, offering convenience to customers to compare and choose canned fruit offered by different brands. The growing number of supermarkets and hypermarkets has facilitated the on-the-go consumers, demand for purchasing products in and receive more value for their money. This, in turn, is also expected to increase the sales of canned fruits. Thus, customers find it beneficial to shop from such retail stores, as they offer attractive discounts and schemes, driving the market growth. Walmart, Lidl, Carrefour SA, Metro Group, and Tesco are some of the prominent retailers offering canned fruits.
