France: The fruit juice market heavily impacted by the health crisis

Published Nov 10, 2020

Tridge summary

The National Interprofessional Union of Fruit Juices (Unijus) has reported significant impacts of the Covid-19 pandemic on the fruit juice market, with particular focus on declining yields and rising demand for orange juice. The situation is attributed to various factors, including reduced harvest numbers in key countries like Brazil and Spain due to the pandemic, and increased consumption in the USA and Europe. Labor costs have risen due to necessary protective measures. The upcoming Spanish orange harvest is expected to see a price increase of over 10% due to expected yield deficits. Additionally, the survey highlighted challenges in the pineapple juice market, such as reduced production and significant price hikes, and a collapse in the export market for mango juice from India. The apple juice market, especially in France, is predicted to be tight due to a weaker harvest and a robust fresh fruit market.
