From Soil to Global Trade: How Vegetable Exports are Reaching Heights

The edible part of plants is called vegetables. These plant parts can be roots, stems, flowers, fruits, seeds, and leaves. It is consumed by both humans and animals. The word “vegetable” came from Old French and was initially used for all plants.  It is believed that vegetables originated between 10,000 BC to 7,000 BC. They have been a part of the human diet when people used to hunt to get food on their plates. The only difference is that they used to eat it in raw form, and now, people cook vegetables before eating them. 

Vegetables contain a high amount of nutrients (minerals, fibres, vitamins, plant-based chemicals like Carotenoids). According to research, 469,551 participants observed that with every additional serving of green vegetables, you decrease the risk of getting heart disease or cancer by 4%. As per the study done by Nurses’ Health Studies and the Health Professionals, the right fruits and vegetables can also help in preventing obesity. Green leafy and non-starchy vegetables have a low glycemic index, which prevents hunger-causing sudden high sugar spikes. Moreover, various studies show that we should eat 5 servings of vegetables a day. To achieve this goal, you can add mixed vegetable curry along with vegetable salad to your daily meals. 



How Research and Awareness are Increasing Global Vegetable Trade

Vegetables' demand in the global trade has witnessed an average increase of 3% from 2017 to 2022. This is because of the high consumer demands and the improved logistics in the global trading business. This shift towards vegetable dominance is because people are prioritizing healthier and low-carb foods. And what could be better than vegetables for fulfilling this purpose. 

The processed forms of vegetables have also been in demand, especially for ready-to-eat meals. This is why the consumer demands have been consistent despite the high costs, as a consequence of the decreased production in the US and the EU. The improvements done in the production process, along with the development of more varieties of vegetables, have made the Northern Hemisphere regions expand their production seasons.

It is also important to note that the consumer demands run parallel to urbanization. So, as more people are moving into the cities and their incomes are increasing, the demands are also increasing unstoppably. Did you know that China is the largest vegetable producer in the world, producing around 600 million tons of vegetables every year. It is then followed by India, which has seen a 20% increase in its vegetable exports from the year 2023 to 2024. It exported 689k shipments of vegetables in 2024 to 9,461 international buyers.


How various research studies and campaigns are driving the global trade of vegetables:

  • The U.S. Departments of Agriculture and Health and Human Services introduced a good guide pyramid. According to this campaign, the Americans are advised to eat five to 9 servings of vegetables and fruits a day. This sets a new goal in the minds of health-conscious people, which in turn increases the consumption and hence, production of vegetables. 
  • Nurses’ Health Study and the Professionals Follow-up Study followed the diet and health of 100,000 people for 28-30 years. Those who consumed about three servings of vegetables per day were less likely to die early as compared to those who ate fewer vegetables. 
  • Partnership for a Healthier America launched the branded Fruits & Veggies (FNV) Campaign in 2015. It aimed at increasing the intake of fruits and vegetables for moms and teenagers in Virginia and California.

How to Find Verified Vegetable Buyers & Importers Globally?

Finding the right buyer is, without any doubt, the most important step in global trading. It becomes even more crucial when it comes to food items. So, here is how you can use multiple platforms to find potential vegetable buyers:

  • Never underestimate your local vegetable vendors. Sometimes, entry to the global trade market starts from home. So, you can start your exploring business with a target of “vegetable buyers near me” and contact your local vendors. You can also search for wholesale vegetable buyers in your local market. 

  • Attend international vegetable trade fairs like AGRI INTEX, United Agritech, Anuga, and others. These trade fairs choose their attendees very carefully, and so, you can be assured that you’re meeting genuine vegetable importers. 

  • Sign up on B2B platforms, such as go4WorldBusiness. Here, you can search for the specific type of vegetable you’re selling by simply typing it in the search bar. For example, you can search for “organic vegetables buyers”, “carrot buyers”, “dehydrated vegetables buyers list”, etc.

  • You can also rely on government trade commissions and embassies to get some assistance in finding verified vegetable buyers. You can also register on APEDA to build connections with suitable buyers. They can issue you an RCMC (Registration-cum-Membership Certificate) through which you become eligible for export incentives. You will also be prioritized for attending various international trade shows.
