By their extended shelf life and reduced transportation weight, air-dried plant products contribute to environmental benefits by minimizing food waste and lowering the carbon footprint associated with food distribution.

The LAMEA region is driven by the rising demand for shelf-stable, convenient food products, particularly in regions with limited access to fresh produce. Brazil's increasing demand is closely linked to the nation's robust coffee culture. As one of the world's leading coffee producers, Brazil has a substantial market for air-dried coffee beans, catering to both domestic consumption and export markets. The United Arab Emirates (UAE) has witnessed a surge in demand for air-dried foods, driven by a predominantly expatriate population seeking convenient and diverse food options. In South Africa, the rising demand can be attributed to the increasing health consciousness among consumers and the popularity of traditional dried meat products like biltong. The government has implemented the Agricultural Product Standards Act regulations to ensure the quality, packing, and marking of dried fruit intended for sale. These regulations aim to standardize product quality and enhance consumer confidence in these products. Hence, the LAMEA region is experiencing a notable increase in the demand for air-dried foods.
