As of 2015, about 14% of the total fruits and vegetables sold in the US were organic. Indicated from the above statistical information is the fact that there is an increased awareness and demand among the American population about organic products. This spells good news for the regional pumpkin powder market as more people demand products that are good for their health and well-being. Hence, North America dominates and will continue to dominate the global pumpkin powder market over the forecast period of the upcoming market report, prepared by Transparency Market Research.
With regard to the Asia Pacific (APAC) region, the organic foods market here is projected to grow at a steady rate in the near future. This growth will be owed to a growing agriculture sector in the region coupled with robust domestic demand by an increasingly knowledgeable and affluent middle class population. Understandably, these factors will also drive the growth of the pumpkin powder market.
