COVID-19 Impact
The demand for apple cider vinegar has surged during the COVID-19 pandemic owing to its immunity-boosting health benefits. Increasing demand for nutritional food products during the lockdown period has further strengthened the apple cider vinegar market growth. However, a decline in sales during the first quarter of the pandemic due to a complete lockdown and a ban on the sale of non-essential items has impacted the demand for the product. Therefore, the year-on-year growth of the market was lower than in the previous years.

Rising Awareness Regarding Health Benefits of ACV to Drive Growth
The global food and beverages industry has witnessed a surging demand for healthy products that have high nutritional value.
