Earlier Report Observations

The market for vegetables preserved in vinegar in Congo expanded from 128 100 tonnes in 2018 to 152 200 tonnes in 2019, supported by the introduction of green agriculture projects that promoted natural farming methods and increased the supply of fresh vegetables for processing. However, the market volume contracted to 127 800 tonnes in 2020, a period that saw the development of small-scale, women-led fruit and vegetable processing enterprises aimed at meeting local demand for transformed products.

Market volume recovered to 138 200 tonnes in 2021 as investments in refrigerated truck fleets improved cold chain logistics and distribution for fresh produce. After stabilizing near 134 200 tonnes in 2022, the market surged to 182 800 tonnes in 2023, driven by the launch of local startups like Surprise Tropicale, the growth of organic vegetable suppliers such as Jaune Congo, and a significant increase in imports, reflecting stronger local production and heightened consumer interest in domestic products.
