The fruit pomace industry grows on sustainability demand, with rising use in feed, nutrition, and eco-friendly food sectors, driven by organic and plant-based trends.
Published 20 November 2025

The global fruit pomace market is projected to expand from USD 3.8 billion in 2025 to USD 5.4 billion by 2035, registering a CAGR of 3.5%.

Organic variants are gaining strong traction, holding 55% of the nature segment due to global preference for clean-label and sustainable ingredients.
