Key Factors Boosting the Processing Strawberry Sector
One major driver behind the industry's growth is the increasing consumer demand for clean-label and minimally processed strawberry products. Today's shoppers are more health-conscious and seek transparency about the ingredients in their food. This shift encourages manufacturers to develop products that meet these expectations without compromising on quality or taste.

Another important factor is the rapid advancement in processing technologies such as freeze-drying, dehydration, and automation. These innovations improve efficiency and product quality while reducing costs. The growing online retail channels also make it easier for consumers to access a wide variety of strawberry-based products, fueling market expansion and creating new opportunities for manufacturers.

Innovative Practices and Sustainability Trends Shaping the Processing Strawberry Sector
Sustainability is becoming a core focus in the processing strawberry industry, with many companies adopting eco-friendly farming methods to tackle challenges like limited farmland, water scarcity, and environmental impact. Vertical farming, which involves growing crops in stacked layers, is gaining traction as it uses less land and resources.

For example, in June 2024, Oishii, a US-based indoor vertical strawberry farming company, launched Amatelas Farm, a 237,500-square-foot facility that employs nearly 50 AI-powered robots to optimize growing conditions. Powered mainly by energy from a 50-acre solar array, this farm yields 20 times more strawberries than traditional farms, uses 95% less water, and eliminates pesticide use. Its year-round production cycle ensures a reliable supply, helping to overcome climate-related and supply chain challenges while promoting environmental sustainability.
