Earlier Report Observations

The in-shell hazelnut market in the Americas expanded from 72.2 thousand tons in 2018 to 102.1 thousand tons in 2020. This growth was supported by a rapid increase in hazelnut production across North America, where output surged due to crop area expansion and the entry of new players into the market. At the same time, rising consumer awareness of the health benefits of nuts and investments by major companies such as Ferrero in marketing and capacity boosted demand.

Market growth continued from 2021 to 2023, with volume reaching 140.2 thousand tons, though the pace of expansion gradually slowed. Sustained increases in cultivated area and yield in the United States maintained supply, while the COVID-19 pandemic accelerated demand for healthy, plant-based snacks. Investments in processing infrastructure, exemplified by Ferrero's Oregon plant expansion, and focused marketing on nutritional attributes supported the market's upward trajectory.
