Superfruits are all the rage, and this is reflected in the booming pomegranate market. Especially the organic segment is playing a leading role in this, according to a report by Fortune Business Insights. In Europe, countries like Germany, Italy and France are leaders in the demand for this special fruit. Globally, an annual average market growth rate (CAGR) of 7.3% is expected for pomegranates until 2030.
At Eosta, we work with Baris Kocagoz, an organic pomegranate grower in Turkey. He has been growing organic pomegranates with his family business, Basak Tarim, for Nature & More since 2012. "We are one of the few organic pomegranate growers worldwide, and we are proud of that," says Baris. Located in western Turkey, near the towns of Söke and Aydin, his farm is a pioneer in organic farming. Besides fresh pomegranates, the company also produces organic pomegranate juice, tea and pomegranate seed oil.
The demand for organic pomegranates is rising rapidly, and with the growing popularity of superfruits, chances are that your customers too will be interested in this healthy, versatile product. Pomegranate is not only delicious to eat on its own, but also great for juice, tea and culinary applications.
Eosta expects to receive the first organic pomegranates from Turkey by the end of October. Would you like more information about this superfruit or to order in advance? Then contact your account manager.
The overseas grape season starts in mid-December, but planning begins now. Demand for organic grapes remains strong and our growers need early visibility on the volumes they can reserve for fixed programmes. By aligning programmes in advance, we can secure organic volumes more effectively and are also in a stronger position to offer competitive pricing.
Along the Orange River in South Africa’s Northern Cape lies Carpe Diem, a long-standing and trusted partner for our organic grapes. Owner Gog van der Colff took over the family business in 2000 and made the deliberate decision to switch to organic farming in 2006. What began as a step that not everyone was initially convinced by has developed into a progressive organic farm producing grapes, pecans and raisins.
El Niño is clearly affecting the South American mango season this year. Higher temperatures and unusual rainfall patterns are disrupting flowering, making availability and harvest timing less predictable.
