The nuts and dry fruits industry in India is a very old one. Nuts and dried fruits are a favourable alternative to unhealthy snacking and to the consumption of meat, and they are more in keeping with a healthy lifestyle. However, competition in this market is increasing. Furthermore, retail requirements will put more pressure on the processing industry and, ultimately, on exporters from developing countries.

Dried fruit is part of the market for preserved fruit and vegetables. Dried fruit is mainly used as a snack or in breakfast cereals, muesli, bakery products, dairy products and desserts. Bakery products and breakfast cereal mixes are the largest end users of dried fruit.

Consumption of nuts and dried fruits is steadily increasing, and is being driven by changing lifestyles and rising health consciousness, which is reflected in growing focus on preventive healthcare against the backdrop of rising healthcare expenditures. In India, nuts and dry fruits have just started making a place for themselves on the health plate.

The dried fruit market in the India has enjoyed growth, benefiting from the ever growing demand for snacking products and interest in healthy eating. Ease of storage, long shelf-life, easy portability, minimal seasonality issues, and natural resistance to spoilage are making nuts and dried fruits a popular snacking option.

A combination of factors such as increasing awareness of health needs, increasing disposable income levels, better availability, right packaging, consistent quality, adequate product communication (labelling), newer products such as Hazelnuts, Pecan Nuts, etc, are leading to a healthy growth of >10 percent year on year for the Nuts and Dry Fruits industry in volume terms.

Every person needs good health and for good health we want good things for care of our health. To attain good health it is essential to follow good nutrition, regular exercise & regulation in sexual activity. To achieve good health we must have good foods which are naturally available just as nuts, fruits, vegetables, cereals etc.

Dry fruits are the best way to achieve good health. They are excellent source of vitamins and enzymes. People who have this natural diet will always enjoy good health because they are easy to digest and clean the blood. We have many qualities of dry fruits like raisins, walnuts, almond, sweet almond etc. They all are helping us for maintaining good health.

Nevertheless the leading world regions growing pistachios include all Iran, Turkey and the San Joaquin valley in California. At present the largest supplier of pistachios to the USA is Turkey.
