Canned Fruit & Vegetable Processing in the US Industry Data and Analysis
Canned fruit and vegetable processors often perform countercyclically to the US economy, benefiting during economic uncertainty. During periods of growth, consumers shy away from canned fruit and vegetable products as higher levels of disposable income allow them to trade up to pricier and fresher products. The perception that canned and processed food is less nutritious than fresh and unprocessed food has substantially inhibited industry expansion in recent years, significantly as health consciousness rises. Producers have diversified product lines to include canned goods with zero added sugars and low-sodium or organic ingredients. Still, there is little opportunity for product innovation in canned fruit and vegetable processing, leaving companies to compete on price and quality.
