Abstract
While Spain ranks amongst the leading producer countries of organic food in Europe, local consumption remains low, with per adult (aged 15+) spend amounting to less than €11 a year. However, with general health awareness spreading amongst Spaniards, consumer demand for organic food and drinks has seen double-digit growth year-on-year over the 2002-07 review period, with sales reaching just under €400 million.
This report covers the retail market for organic food and non-alcoholic drinks, produced according to organic principles and standards. This includes fruit and vegetables, meat and poultry, dairy products, fish and seafood, eggs, prepared foods and groceries, cereal products, baby and toddler foods, infant formula, soft drinks, and beverages such as tea and coffee. It includes organic foods that are fresh, frozen or ambient.
