Fresh fruits, usually with a glossy appearance, thin skin, rich aroma, sweet taste, and relatively richer nutritional content, refer to those that have just been picked or recently picked. These fruits not only contain a large amount of water and carbohydrates but are also rich in nutrients such as vitamins and minerals, which are very beneficial for people's physical health.

According to taste classification, fresh fruits can be divided into sweet fruits and sour fruits. Sweet fruits such as apples, bananas, grapes, etc. have a sweet taste and are loved by people; Sour fruits such as lemon and lime, although slightly sour, are rich in vitamin C and have unique nutritional value.

Segmented market analysis

From the perspective of product types, fresh fruits can be divided into two categories: organic fruits and non-organic fruits based on whether chemically synthesized pesticides, fertilizers, and growth regulators are used in the planting and production process. Organic fruits follow the production standards of organic agriculture during the planting process, emphasizing ecological balance and sustainable development. The use of the aforementioned chemicals is prohibited, and instead, natural methods and substances are used to regulate crop growth. Therefore, organic fruits are often considered healthier and more environmentally friendly; Non-organic fruits may use chemically synthesized pesticides, fertilizers, etc. during the planting process to increase yield and control pests and diseases. Although these chemicals to some extent ensure the yield and appearance of fruits, they may also pose potential hazards to human health and the environment.

Research has shown that organic fresh fruits occupy a larger market share among the two types of fresh fruits. Data shows that the global organic fresh fruit market is expected to reach $68.20 billion in 2024, with an estimated market share of 55.40%.
