UAE Organic Food Market, By Type, By Form, By End User, By Distribution Channel, By Region, Competition Forecast & Opportunities, 2027

UAE organic food market is projected to grow at a significant rate during the forecast period. The market growth can be attributed to the increasing health consciousness among the population, especially among the millennial population, and rising incidences of various lifestyle disorders such as obesity, cardiovascular diseases, diabetes, etc. Besides, increasing initiatives by the government to reduce the obesity rate of the country and the emergence of standard local organic farms in the country are driving the growth of the UAE organic food market during the forecast period. As consumers are becoming aware of the harmful effects of chemical fertilizers and pesticides, the demand for organic fruits and vegetables is increasing significantly. The UAE government is coming up with a certification process to ensure that the locally grown fruits and vegetables meet international organic farming standards, which is expected to boost the growth of the UAE organic food market in the coming years. The establishment of hydroponic farms to promote chemical-free crop production and reduce dependency on imports are further anticipated to boost the UAE organic food market.

Furthermore, rising income levels and improved distribution channels are anticipated to be one of the biggest driving factors for the global organic food market. Moreover, the growing adoption of organic fruits and vegetables by various food retailer brands to accommodate the rising demand among consumers for fresh produce is projected to fuel the UAE organic food market. However, the high production costs of organic foods and the low shelf life of organic foods are expected to hamper the market growth in the estimated period.

The UAE organic food market is segmented based on type, form, end user, distribution channel, region, and competitional landscape. Based on distribution channel, the market can be segmented into supermarkets/hypermarkets, grocery stores, e-commerce, convenience stores, and others.
