Driven by the global health food trend and the restructuring of supply chains, China's dehydrated carrot exports demonstrated robust resilience in 2025. From the cultivation bases in the Huang-Huai-Hai Plain to the supermarket shelves in Southeast Asia, China's dehydrated carrot, leveraging advantages in the entire industrial chain, policy benefits, and digital empowerment, have become a core supplier to the global market. Their export strengths are reflected across multiple dimensions, including demand alignment, production capacity assurance, and channel expansion.
The global demand surge provides fertile ground for foreign trade growth. With the deep-rooted concept of healthy eating, the European, American, and Asian markets have shown strong demand for high-fiber, low-fat natural foods. Dried carrot, prized for their easy storage and high nutritional value, have become a popular choice. Data from 2025 indicates that their applications have expanded from food processing to pharmaceuticals and cosmetics. Antioxidants and vitamin supplements made from carrot extracts have gained significant popularity, driving continuous growth in the global market. China has accurately captured this trend, with dried carrot particles exports reaching 56,000 tons in 2024 and projected to increase to 94,000 tons in 2025, accounting for over 68% of core markets such as South Asia and Europe.
The full industrial chain advantage builds barriers in cost and quality. Upstream, relying on core production areas such as the Huang-Huai-Hai Plain and Shandong, China's total carrot production reached 9.6 million tons in 2024, with raw material procurement prices 40% lower than those in coastal regions. Midstream has formed a complete "washing - cutting - dehydration - packaging" cluster, with 28 large-scale enterprises in Yingshang, Anhui, achieving a daily processing capacity of 200 tons and an output utilization rate exceeding 90%. Downstream, leading enterprises drive upgrades, with annual production capacities surpassing 12,000 tons for companies like Shouguang, Shandong, and achieving 100% HACCP and GLOBALG.A.P. certification coverage. The dual support of cost advantages and quality control gives Chinese products a significant cost-performance edge in the international market.
In 2025, China's dehydrated carrot cubes export industry is a collaborative achievement of demand insight, industrial upgrading, and policy empowerment. With the widespread adoption of green processing technologies and the development of emerging markets, this advantage will continue to grow, writing a new chapter in China's agricultural product exports.
