Food Demand Trends Global per capita availability of fruits and vegetables grew from 155 kg in 1990 to 212 in Consumers in Latin American and Asia are registering the fastest growth in food demand in the world – in the face of slow growth mature food markets in the developed world. Growing global importance of supermarket chains plays a key role in stimulating fresh produce trade – shelf space needs to be full year-round. This is a positive factor for citrus demand.

This compares with 40% growth in population. Citrus production growth has lagged population as demand has diversified for other fruit. On the other hand, developing countries are increasing consumption of fresh produce, including citrus, as incomes improve. Developing countries also have higher rates of population growth. Trade liberalization through the WTO is opening markets and reducing tariffs.
Citrus markets and trade will continue to diversify: –between 1990 and 2003 imports of oranges, tangerines and clementines into all countries grew by an average of 23%, v. 20% into developed countries and 39% into developing countries. –between 1990 and 2003 imports of grapefruit and pomelos into all countries grew by 9%, v. 6% into developed countries and 63% into developing countries. The US and the EU dominate global horticultural trade. Source: World Apple Review 2005

Obesity Goes Global: Globesity! WHO estimates that obesity grew from 200 million people in 1995 to over 300 million in million of the obese live in developing countries. Even in France, obese people are now 11% (vs. 8% in 2000) of the population and expected to reach 20% in The number of obese people in Britain almost tripled between 1980 and 2001; overweight or obese pre-school children doubled in the 90s.
Concern over Globesity Affects Public Policy Fresh produce is set to benefit. Competition from non-healthy snack foods is finally being challenged by health messages and changes in availability, such as in schools. Growing evidence on the health benefits of fresh citrus must be aggressively communicated and promoted, to all age groups. Citrus can be made more convenient to consume, witness the launching of Sunkist’s Fun Fruit program.
