Global Fruit Sorting Machinery Market - 2022-2029

Market Overview

The global fruit sorting machinery market was valued at USD XX million in 2021. It is forecasted to reach USD XX million by 2029, growing at a CAGR of XX% during the forecast period (2022-2029).

Fruit sorting equipment boosts production, improves operation, and increases food safety and quality assurance while using less energy and chemicals. The machines that sort fruits by color, weight, shape, size, defects, biological properties, etc., use a variety of sensors. Different sorts of fruits can be sorted using fruit sorting machines. Various fruit sorting machines are available on the market, which removes the pit, discoloration, mold, mechanical damage, and foreign elements such as insects, glass, and plastic. During the projected period, these elements are anticipated to increase demand for fruit sorting machinery.

Market Dynamics:

Increasing demand for processed fruits is driving the market growth

Due to their availability in a ready-to-eat state, processed fruits are becoming more and more popular. All fruits must undergo grading and sorting procedures before being shipped to other nations. As a result, to maintain the balance between world supply and demand, food producers and processors must increase their sorting capacity. These fruits' processing and delivery times must be shortened to meet the rising demand for processed fruits. Reducing the processing cycle time and using automated fruit sorting equipment can accomplish this. Due to the automated machinery, the processing time has been significantly decreased, and the quality of processed fruits and fruit products has improved

Additionally, fruit juice and well-packaged fruits are both on the rise. Juice consumption has increased along with the use of well-processed and packed fruits, which has increased the need for fruit sorting machinery. These tools are quick and reliable, and they can satisfy the market expectations of the packed and processed fruit industry. The industry has also been driven by an increase in the demand for well-packaged fresh fruits and fresh fruits that have been graded and sorted for juices.

Moreover, a sharp increase in labor costs will create a demand for fruit sorting equipment in the years to come. Over the future years, the fruit retail industry is projected to see a significant increase in product penetration due to widespread fruit consumption and rising health consciousness.

Market Segmentation:

Automatic segment for the highest share in global fruit sorting machinery market

The market for fruit sorting equipment is divided into three types: automatic and manual feeding. The market for automatic fruit sorting machinery, which uses automated programmable logic unit technology for the fruit sorting process, is expanding significantly. Due to its consistency, homogeneity, and accuracy in fruit sorting, automatic fruit sorting equipment dominates the market. The market for automatic fruit sorting machines has grown due to rising consumer demand for high-quality round fruits and relatively inexpensive equipment.

By application, the market is segmented into fruit processing, fruit juice processing, and packaging. Fruit processing is dominating over the others owing to the wide use of fruit sorting equipment in this sector and the rise in demand for the quality and maturity of the fruits. In large factories, fruit sorting equipment reduces time and labor costs. Using labor in fruit sorting also increases the risk of inconsistency and inaccuracy in judgment. The fruit sorting machines have solved this problem in large fruit processing plants, and owing to this, they are widely used in the different fruit processing plants for sorting fruits according to their weight.

Geographical Penetration:

North-America is the dominating region during the forecast period

North America dominates the fruit sorting machinery market. This dominance will flourish over the forecast period due to the high adoption rate brought on by high labor costs and the growing propensity of people to lead healthier lives. The market in North America and Europe is anticipated to expand the most during the projected period due to a rise in demand for fruit sorting equipment. The region's market development has benefited most from increased industrial growth and consumer knowledge of the benefits of using fruit for skincare and wellbeing.

Competitive Landscape:

The market appears to be fragmented with the presence of several market players. Vendors in the global fruit sorting machinery market are constantly involved in strategic partnerships with information technology companies to strengthen their portfolio of sorting machinery with the latest digital features. SORTEX, a brand of automated optical fruit sorting equipment sold by Buhler AG, includes the SORTEX K Optical Sorter and the SORTEX F Optical Sorter. Also available from the firm are the SORTEX K Optical Sorter, SORTEX F Optical Sorter, and SORTEX E1D Optical Sorter, which are all automated optical fruit sorting machines.

COVID-19 Impact:

Negative impact on the global fruit sorting machinery market

With delays in farm labour, processing, shipping, and logistics as well as significant swings in demand, the COVID-19 pandemic has put enormous strain on the food supply networks. The majority of these disruptions are the consequence of measures taken to stop the virus's spread. In the face of these challenges, food supply chains have proven to be very resilient. As stockpiling behaviour decreased and supply networks adjusted to rising demand, grocery store shelves were restocked over time. As a result of measures to reduce pointless restrictions, long queues at borders quickly disappeared. Experience to date demonstrates the significance of an open and predictable international trading environment to ensuring fruits and vegetables may migrate to where they are needed, even though the effects of COVID-19 are still being felt.
