Juice Production in the UK

The Juice Production industry revenue is expected to have shrunk at a compound annual rate of 2.7% over the five years through 2023-24 to £517 million, including a contraction of 2.9% in the current year. The industry has been dealt blow after blow to their supply chains – COVID-19 and related lockdowns restricted international trade for over a year and poor harvests, combined with the Russia-Ukraine war, have led to prices of imported fruit skyrocketing since 2020. Furthermore, criticisms over fruit juice and smoothie sugar contents have also damaged the industry's reputation for having healthy products.

Companies in this industry produce fruit juice, vegetable juice and concentrates. Juice products can be fresh, pasteurised or cold-pressed to control the microbiological loading of the material, which aids storage and shelf life. The production of smoothies is also included in the industry. The industry excludes fruit drinks, which can contain added sugar, flavourings or artificial sweeteners.

This report covers the scope, size, disposition and growth of the industry including the key sensitivities and success factors. Also included are five year industry forecasts, growth rates and an analysis of the industry key players and their market shares.
