Earlier Report Observations

The Uruguayan fresh beans market volume shifted after the 2018 decree mandating front-of-pack warning labels for packaged foods high in sodium, sugars, or fats, which included fresh or chilled beans. This regulatory introduction coincided with a decrease in market volume to 1 066 t in 2019. A one-year implementation extension in 2020 eased the transition, and a study revealed that 58% of consumers changed their purchasing decisions when confronted with the labels, likely steering demand toward healthier options like fresh beans, contributing to a recovery to 1 097 t that year.

In 2021, the government modified and raised the nutrient thresholds for the front-of-pack labeling, relaxing criteria for the food industry. Market volume stabilized around 1 090 t in the following years. By 2023, growth in private consumption and a recovery in the agricultural sector boosted demand for fresh produce, including beans, helping lift market volume to 1 092 t after minor earlier declines.
