Earlier Report Observations

From 2018, when PBF Agro Ltd announced plans to expand into vegetable production including leguminous vegetables, the market for fresh or chilled leguminous vegetables in Melanesia saw substantial growth. The market size increased from 891.8 thousand USD in 2018 to 1.3 million USD in 2020, driven primarily by a surge in imports.

A sharp contraction followed in 2021, with the market size dropping to 603.3 thousand USD due to a dramatic fall in import volumes. The market then stabilized and began to recover, reaching 756.9 thousand USD by 2023.
