Flour or powder of fruits and nuts market in the United States

Earlier Report Observations

The market volume for flour or powder of fruits and nuts in the United States contracted significantly from 2018 to 2023, falling from 17.9 thousand tons to 11.1 thousand tons. This decline represented a reduction of over one-third in domestic consumption across the five-year period, with the steepest annual drop occurring in 2022.

Domestic production remained relatively stable, hovering between 17.0 and 17.7 thousand tons annually. However, a consistent rise in exports, which reached 10.0 thousand tons by 2023, coupled with a sharp fall in imports, contributed to the shrinking available volume on the domestic market.

In value terms, the market size followed a similar downward trajectory, decreasing from $107.0 million to $61.5 million. A temporary increase in the market's dollar value was noted in 2020, but this did not reverse the overarching trend of decline in both volume and value through 2023.
