• Why invest in hazelnuts?

  Hazelnuts are in high demand globally, with prices remaining relatively stable year-round. Driven by the food industry and growing interest in plant-based diets, this market is forecasted to grow steadily. Hazelnuts are resilient, wind-pollinated, and require minimal labor and chemical treatments compared to other crops, making them an efficient and sustainable investment.

• Why is the hazelnut market attractive?

  The market has shown long-term growth, valued at USD 12.62 billion in 2022 and expected to reach USD 21.34 billion by 2028 (CAGR 9.14%). Industrial demand is high, especially from confectionery and bakery industries, with major producers concentrated in Turkey, Italy, Chile, and Serbia.
