What is Avocado Processing?
Avocado is a rich source of phytosterols, vitamins E and C, minerals, fibers, antioxidants, amino acids, and monounsaturated fatty acids. It assists in relieving arthritis pain, enhancing cholesterol levels, reducing the risk of heart from atherosclerosis, maintaining a healthy vision and digestive system, and improving the antioxidant properties among individuals. As a result, avocado is processed to preserve its taste, texture, and color for a long period of time. Avocado processing can be done by removing the peduncle and cleaning it in a machine through chlorinated water and rotating brushes. In addition, it is used to produce various processed food products, such as guacamole, avocado oils, and avocado sauce, by cutting, peeling, and mixing avocado with onion, chili pepper, and several acids. Furthermore, avocado processing enables preparation of wraps, salads, sandwiches, sushi rolls, and other high-quality ready-to-eat (RTE) food products around the world.

COVID-19 Impact:
The COVID-19 pandemic outbreak caused a severe problem for the avocado processing industry and imposed unprecedented challenges on numerous countries. It hampered the production of avocados due to the shutdown of manufacturing units. Due to supply chain disruptions and transport restrictions, the industry faced huge losses. In addition, the raw materials that couldn’t be transferred to the processing plants caused a significant loss of farm produce. Less demand for avocados was observed on account of the shutdown of hotels, cafes, restaurants, and other food chains. Besides this, there was an unavailability or shortage of labor and equipment in the agricultural production, processing, and distribution channels. This has also caused a spike in the prices of avocados that eventually led to their decreased demand among the masses around the world. However, post-pandemic consumption of avocados is expected to increase due to health consciousness among individuals, as they comprise various vitamins and minerals. Furthermore, the demand for processed avocado products has been witnessed among consumers due to hectic and busy lifestyles.

Avocado Processing Market Trends:
At present, the increasing adoption of processed and ready-to-eat (RTE) avocado products due to the busy and hectic lifestyles of individuals worldwide represents one of the major factors influencing the market positively. Moreover, the rising utilization of processed avocado products in the food and beverage (F&B) industry to prepare multiple cuisines, along with the thriving food service sector, is strengthening the growth of the market. Apart from this, the growing demand for avocado processed food products on account of the increasing health awareness among the masses, coupled with the inflating income level of individuals across the globe, is offering a positive market outlook. Additionally, the rising acceptance and influence of Western culture and food products among individuals around the world are offering lucrative growth opportunities to industry investors. Besides this, the increasing demand for avocados, as they aid in relieving arthritis pain, improving healthy vision, and reducing the risk of heart diseases, is supporting the growth of the market. In addition, the wide availability of processed avocado products through online and offline distribution channels is bolstering the growth of the market. Furthermore, the increasing demand for avocados to enhance wound healing and neutralize free radicals in the body is contributing to the growth of the market.
