Market Segmentation

“Global Fruit Juice Market Report  and Forecast 2024-2032” offers a detailed analysis of the market based on the following segments:

Growing health concerns are driving the demand for 100% fruit juices without additional flavours and sugar

100% fruit juice is highly sought-after for consumers who are health-conscious and aware of the benefits of consuming products without added sugars, artificial flavours, or preservatives. This category is often marketed as the healthiest option among fruit juice products as it is made from pure fruit with no added ingredients.

Meanwhile, nectars and concentrates continue to hold a significant share in the fruit juice market due to their affordability and convenience. Nectars, which are fruit juices diluted with water and may contain added sugars and flavours, occupy a substantial share of the market, especially in regions where consumers are looking for cheaper alternatives to 100% fruit juice.

Concentrates are highly popular in both developing and developed markets due to their convenience and cost-effectiveness. Concentrated fruit juices require reconstitution with water before consumption, making them a more economical and storage-friendly option.

Paper cartons are expected to account for a major portion of the global fruit juice market share in the forecast period

Paper cartons are the most widely utilised packaging for fruit juices owing to their eco-friendliness compared to plastic bottles and cans. They are made from renewable resources (wood pulp) and are often easier to recycle, contributing to their popularity among eco-conscious consumers and brands seeking to reduce their environmental footprint.

While bottles offer certain advantages, such as reusability (in the case of glass) and visibility of the product, they tend to be heavier and more fragile than paper cartons. Aluminium cans also hold a substantial position in the fruit juice market as they provide excellent protection from light and air, preserving the juice's quality. They are also recyclable. However, cans are not typically associated with premium juice products, and there's a growing consumer concern about the environmental impact of single-use packaging.
