Market Share by Product

Regular consumption of nut based spreads has led to an increase in demand for varied options in the nut based spread market.

Among more health-conscious consumers, almond based spreads are gaining popularity due to their high nutritional value and suited combination with fruits, increasing their demand in the United States nut based spread market.

Market Share by Form

Creamy forms of nut based spreads account for a sizable share of the United States nut based spread market due to their versatility in use in various recipes and on different types of bread. While preference for form of nut based spreads does vary depending upon personal choice, creamy textures are easier for spreading and can be combined with other condiments and ingredients with ease. However, for use as a sole spread, there is still adequate demand for crunchy nut based spreads among adults due to their nutritional value.
