Summary

Trends and Developments in Dried, Ambient and Chilled Fruit Snacks.

Growing international interest in healthy eating and rising concerns over obesity are combining with continued demand for convenient snacks suitable for on-the-go consumption to create a market for healthier alternatives to traditional snacks, such as chocolate countlines, cakes, biscuits and bagged snacks. Fruit has traditionally been used as a snack, but market development has been held back by the perceived inconvenience of fresh fruit products, which may need peeling or other preparation, can be difficult to transport, and often have to be consumed in their entirety once started. In some instances it is only relatively recently that new fruit products specifically targeted at the snack market have started to appear, although in other cases existing products have been repackaged or repositioned to make them suitable for snacking.

This report assesses trends and developments in the international market for fruit snacks. It looks at four key categories - fruit bars and processed fruit snacks, canned and ambient fruit snacks, dried snacking fruit and chilled fruit snacks. It includes information on market sizes and segmentation, influences and trends, key companies and brands and recent new product activity.

'The International Market for Fruit Snacks' is one in a series of 4 "New Generation Snack Foods" reports from Leatherhead Food International.
