Earlier Report Observations

The Tunisian kiwifruit market volume fluctuated significantly between 2018 and 2023. After a sharp decline to 850 t in 2019 from 1 968 t the previous year, it gradually recovered to 1 521 t by 2022.

The market's peak in 2022 occurred amid broader economic pressures, including notable price increases for fresh kiwifruit due to rising costs for seeds, fertilizers, and transport. Consumer preferences shifted toward alternative distribution channels such as street vendors, and government policies related to inflation and pandemic management indirectly affected the fresh food market. In 2023, the market size decreased to 1 306 t.
