Citrus Pulp Fibre Market to Expand At An Amazing Rate by 2033

The global citrus pulp fibre market value is anticipated to reach a market value of US$ 322.5 million by 2033, expanding with a CAGR of 6.8%. Sales of the fibre pulp are likely to account for a notable part of the demand in the global food processing market in 2023.

FMI predicts that this is due to the prevalent trend of increased consumer preference for plant-based products. Since citrus pulp fibre is a product of citrus fruit processing, it is natural and sustainable, which makes it more appealing for consumers as well as manufacturers who prefer sustainable ingredients in their products. Citrus pulp fibre has a wide range of applications including bakery, beverages, confectionary, etc. The expansion of these industries drives this industry to expand as well.

The seasonal availability of citrus fruit causes price fluctuations and supply uncertainties, which can turn out to be a challenge for suppliers and manufacturers. While citrus fibre has its benefits, it is not the only competitor in the market. It has to face competition from markets such as oat fibre, wheat bran, and cellulose based fibres. This causes an intensely competitive field for the product.

FMI points out that the expanding functional food and dietary supplements industry prefers citrus pulp fibre for its texture stability, nutritional content and its suitability for use in other products. This results in expansion of the citrus pulp market as well.
