Introduction to Oregon Fruit Products’ New Line
Oregon Fruit Products, recently introduced a new, limited line of Oregon Fruit Aseptic Concentrates. These are high-quality, real fruit concentrates processed aseptically. The salient feature of aseptic processing is that it deactivates any potential spoilage-causing microorganisms, ensuring longer shelf life and safety for consumers. It consequently makes these concentrates an excellent choice for a range of beverages such as fruited ciders, ready-to-drink products (RTDs), and beers.
Enormous Potential in the Cider Market
According to market analysts, the global cider market is brimming with potential. The compound annual growth rate (CAGR) projected for this category from 2018 to 2025 stands at a healthy 5.92%. In terms of sales in the US alone, the forecast anticipates a whopping figure of $15.84 billion!
Revolutionizing Beer and Cider Offerings
Chris Hodge, Director of Sales for Oregon Fruit Products, emphasizes the desire of breweries and cider makers to diversify and expand their offerings in a quest for success. For brewers, that means venturing out of the comfort zone of traditional beers to embrace trending alternatives like seltzers and RTDs. Cider makers, on the other hand, aim to entice their customers with innovative flavors and styles of ciders.
Hodge is confident that the new aseptic concentrates from Oregon Fruit Products will inspire creative brews and ciders that will excite consumers. An additional advantage is that the use of these concentrates can help to lower the cost of goods sold (COGs) for makers.
The Initial Aseptic Concentrate Lineup
To begin with, the company is launching a modest portfolio of concentrates. Leading the lineup are three tantalizing fruit flavors – mango, grapefruit, and lemon. These aseptic concentrates are particularly suitable for clarified beverages. Since they do not contain fiber, makers can skip the filtration process when using these products.
Key Features and Benefits of Oregon Fruit Aseptic Concentrates
With its new aseptic concentrates, Oregon Fruit Products aims to become a one-stop solution for real fruit needs in the fermentation industry. These concentrates hold several advantages for brewers and cider makers:
