Earlier Report Observations
From 2018 to 2020, the market volume for fresh cucumbers and gherkins in Madagascar remained relatively stable, fluctuating between 623 and 628 tons. This stability coincided with the adoption of Law No. 2018-020, which overhauled competition rules and strengthened market regulation, providing a clearer framework for domestic producers. The following year, Decree No. 1733/2019 on standardization work at the Malagasy Standards Bureau introduced new quality and certification requirements for agricultural products, further shaping the operating environment without disrupting overall supply.
Beginning in 2021, market volume entered a growth phase, rising from 628 tons to 675 tons by 2023. This expansion of nearly 50 tons was primarily fueled by a surge in imports, which increased from zero in 2020 to over 51 tons in 2023. While domestic production held steady, the influx of imported cucumbers significantly enlarged the total market available to consumers.
In 2024, several developments framed the market context. A decree redefining the responsibilities of the Ministry of Agriculture and Livestock emphasized agribusiness development to meet national and international market needs. Concurrently, a sharp rise in new business creation—444 companies in the third quarter alone—signaled increased economic dynamism and potential new entrants to the agricultural sector. The maintained 'Everything But Arms' trade regime with the European Union continued to facilitate export access, although macroeconomic challenges like high inflation and interest rates persisted.
