The latest FreshFacts on Retail report from the United Fresh Produce Association has once again highlighted the consistent growth in sales of value-added and organic fresh produce.
The publication, which covers the second quarter of 2016 and is produced in partnership with Del Monte and Nielsen, examines retail trends in produce for the three-month period, including a spotlight on fresh produce annual spending by region.
'The 'regionality of fresh produce' section will help our members adjust their strategy for planning sales and promotions in different markets,' said Jeff Oberman, vice-president trade relations at United Fresh, and the organisation's retail-foodservice board staff liason. 'The retail-foodservice board, United Fresh and Nielsen will continue to collaborate on new ways to explore retail produce purchasing data to help our members grow and succeed.'
The latest report also features category focuses on berries, packaged salad and potatoes, all of which are purchased by more than 75 per cent of US households annually.
