Market Overview of Global Date Fruit market:
According to our latest research, the global Date Fruit market looks promising in the next 5 years. As of 2022, the global Date Fruit market was estimated at USD 14934.93 million, and it's anticipated to reach USD 18243.94 million in 2028, with a CAGR of 3.39% during the forecast years.
Date Fruits were one of the few crop plants that could survive desert conditions, and became a reliable source of food in an otherwise inhospitable climate. Sumerian, Babylonian, Egyptian, and other ancient people used the palm for house construction and thatching as well as for food. It was spread across northern Africa along the coast and at oases by nomadic people, where it became a staple crop. Dates are the fruit product of the date palm, a tree native to the Middle East and Africa. Date palms grow thick clusters of date fruits below their fronds. Unripe date fruits are green in color, and but they slowly turn yellow-orange as they mature. Fully ripe dates are a rich brown color with thick, glossy, sticky skin. The center of the sweet date flesh contains a small pit.
In terms of regional distribution, the demand for dates in Europe will be relatively large in the future. In the global ranking of date importing countries by region in 2020, European countries are ranked relatively high. In Europe, more than 85% of imported dates come from developing countries. Intra-European trade includes simple re-exports on the date of import, but a large part of it includes value-added trade, including retail packaging and other businesses. In the past five years, European imports from developing countries have been increasing. The current growth and the expected increase in the number of imports provide good opportunities for suppliers in developing countries. The growing demand for healthy snacks and sugar substitutes, coupled with product innovation, is the driving force behind the growing interest of European consumers in dates. Likewise, sustainable and ethical production is becoming an important aspect for European traders and consumers.
Sugar substitute
The sugar consumption of people around the world is decreasing. Jujube is one of the sweetest fruits and contains only natural sugar. Therefore, date fruits are increasingly used as sugar substitutes. Innovative fruit snacks and other products containing dates often use clear labels, such as: no refined sugar, no added sugar, reducing sugar and low sugar. Jujube also adds flavor and color, replacing the need for artificial additives, thereby creating clear ingredient labels.
Requirements for Date fruit planting
Date fruit has the characteristics of drought-tolerant, alkali-resistant, heat-resistant and damp-like. "Upper dry and lower wet" is its ideal growth environment. From a global perspective, Date fruit varieties vary greatly and there are differences in production areas. For example, in the past fifty years, a large number of studies have been conducted on Date fruit cultivation through the All India Coordinated Research Project (AICRP) led by the Agricultural Research Council of India (ICAR). Almost all date varieties grown in India are imported from the Arabian Gulf and Middle Eastern countries. India has great potential to increase the production area of dates to meet local demand and produce dates for export. However, the cultivation, production, processing and sales of dates are still plagued by some problems. Low quality varieties, inability to obtain tissue culture plants, poor farm management, pests, diseases, lack of organized sales, and insufficient applied research are the main constraints for Indian dates. Restrictions on the cultivation of dates have limited the development of the industry to a certain extent.
