The global almond ingredients market size is estimated to be valued at USD 10.2 billion in 2020 and projected to reach USD 16.9 billion by 2025, recording a CAGR of 10.5% during the forecast period. The global almond ingredients industry has witnessed growing trends in the past years. The growth of this industry is majorly driven by product innovations in the food & beverage industry, as seen in dairy products, snacks & bars, confectionery, cereals, and desserts. This growth is compounded by the increasing health consciousness among consumers, in terms of gaining more awareness about cardiovascular diseases, obesity, and diabetes. This rising awareness compels the food & beverage industry to develop healthy varieties of products using natural nut ingredients, such as almonds, cashews, walnuts, and hazelnuts. The rising disposable income levels also lead to greater purchasing of premium offerings.The positioning of almond ingredients as healthier alternatives to traditional snacks in the market fuels its consumption resulting in growth opportunities for the almond ingredients market.
