Market Drivers and Restraints:
High water content leads to perishable fruit, therefore, fresh fruits are dried to extend their shelf life while preserving the product. In dried fruits, a large proportion of water is removed using the spectrum of drying procedures. In addition, osmotic dehydration is one of the most appropriate techniques to improve the shelf life of fruits. The process has gained popularity due to its ability to retain flavor, minerals, color, flavor, and vitamins while reducing the water level in the fruit. Additionally, nuts are easy to store and are considered nutritional health benefits. According to some sources, NCBI conducted studies on dried fruits like goji, raisins, and blueberries in 2017 and they had antioxidant properties. Additionally, goji fruits have been shown to be healthier for consumers. For the record and according to the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey carried out in 1999-2004, it was found that the consumption of dried fruits contributed to improving the quality of food, increasing nutritional intake and minimizing body weight in the adult population of the United States. These positive results, validated and confirmed by studies carried out by accredited health organizations like NCBI, should stimulate growth in the market in the coming years.

Impact of COVID-19 on Europe Dried Fruits Market:
COVID-19 has affected almost every country in the world and developing nations are no exception. Some countries are seriously affected, while others have managed to control the spread by implementing blockades and maintaining social distance. The F&B sector and the retail sector are among the most affected in the world. Restaurants and bars will remain closed even after closing; it could take months to regain control and get the same crowd as before the COVID pandemic. The disruption caused by the pandemic is likely to result in the loss of 30 million jobs in the travel and hospitality industry. There is a massive drop in the hotel sector after a national blockade. Although livelihood is currently a challenge, we do not expect it to be resolved at the end of the foreclosure. It is difficult to estimate the number of people who would choose to dine before the lockout, although we anticipate an increase in takeout and delivery orders.
