The global organic edible nuts and seeds market size is expected to reach USD 59.98 billion by 2030, expanding at 10.7% CAGR from 2023 to 2030, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. Organic nuts and seeds are cultivated in a certified organic environment, right from the sourcing of raw materials. The nuts are completely free from any artificial additives/ingredients and trace amounts of chemical fertilizers.
Key companies offering organic nuts and nutmeal products include HBS Natural Choice; Tierra Farm; and Sun Organic Farm. Furthermore, due to the increasing internet penetration, the online market for the purchase of such food products has seen rapid growth globally in the last few years. This has attracted a few major retailers, including Amazon; Walmart; and Carrefour, who are capitalizing on increasing e-retailing growth in the online organic edible nuts and seeds industry. Organic edible nuts & seeds are produced in various parts of the world and then supplied to vendors and processors.

Various companies export organic certified edible nuts and seeds to distributors and food manufacturers for further applications and to retailers as well. Companies such as SCHLUTER UND MAACK; MWT Foods; and Olam International Limited have obtained global organic certifications to offer organic edible nuts and seeds across the globe.
In the retail market, various brands offer organic edible nuts & seeds and consumers can choose from a wide range of private-labeled products available in the market.
