Shorter Shelf Life, Certain Environmental Factors, Adulteration and Preservation Challenges are Bringing a Threat to Market Participants

The limited shelf life of coconut water is one of the major reasons restraining the growth of the global market. Many environmental factors affect the production of coconut. Changes in environmental factors may result in changes in crop production or quality. Unpredictable environmental changes affect the supply of raw materials, thereby impacting the coconut water market. Furthermore, fruits are often contaminated with chemicals such as citric acid, ethylene, and others to increase their shelf life or make them delicious and fresh. The adulterated raw material does not produce the required output and quality, thus limiting the production and quality of the coconut water market. To supply the global demand for coconut water throughout the year, preservation and processing are critical. The most challenging problem is preserving delicate coconut water as processing procedures may result in the loss of nutritional and therapeutic qualities. The high cost of packaging, production, and distribution of coconut water is also hampering the market growth.
