GCC Basmati Rice Market Trends:
A lack of rice production in the GCC region on account of unsuitable climatic conditions, in confluence with the escalating demand for better quality rice, represents one of the key factors propelling the growth of the market. Additionally, as basmati rice is considered a staple food in the GCC countries, along with wheat, its export is rising from India and Pakistan. Moreover, a high density of Asian expatriates is driving the overall sales of basmati rice in the region. Apart from this, the growing prevalence of lifestyle diseases on account of lack of physical activities is resulting in the increasing health-consciousness among individuals. As a result, there is a considerable increase in the consumption of brown basmati rice in the daily diet, which has low-fat content and high nutritional value. Furthermore, governing agencies operating in different countries of the GCC region are encouraging abroad investments for the import of rice, which is anticipated to impel the growth of the market.Key Market Segmentation:
