UK Berries Market Analysis
The United Kingdom Berries Market size is estimated at USD 1.65 billion in 2023, and is expected to reach USD 2.18 billion by 2028, growing at a CAGR of 5.74% during the forecast period (2023-2028).
- The United Kingdom is primarily a marginal climate for commercial growers due to the lack of longer and more intense hours of sunlight. Despite this factor, some areas in the United Kingdom, such as Kent, Worcestershire, and Herefordshire, have a combination of soil and sunlight that make the growing of fruit trees, including berries, on a large scale. The country is also one of the major trade partners of berries.
- Approximately 95% of UK-grown berries are purchased by the leading supermarkets, which also supply a large proportion of berries imported into the country. Angus Soft Fruits Ltd and BerryWorld are some of the leading suppliers of berries to the United Kingdom and European retailers. S&A Produce, Total Berry, and Rodanto are other major suppliers of berries in the United Kingdom.
- Spain, Chile, and the Netherlands are a few major importers of strawberries, blueberries, and raspberries from the United Kingdom. Spain is an upcoming importer of fresh berries, both for the internal market and re-export. Although Spain has increased its blueberry production in recent years, it still depends on the United Kingdom to meet its demand.
