Market Growth Drivers

High water content causes the perishability of the fruits. Hence, fresh fruits are dried to extend their shelf life along with the preservation of the product. In dried fruits, a large proportion of water is removed by using the spectrum of drying procedures. Moreover, osmotic dehydration is one of the most suited techniques for enhancing the shelf life of fruits. The process has gained popularity due to its ability to retain flavor, minerals, color, taste, and vitamin along with reducing the water level in fruits. The aforementioned aspects are anticipated to steer the growth of the dried fruits market over the forecast period.
