Pre-COVID-19, the shelled pistachio market was on a steady growth trajectory, driven by increasing consumer awareness of pistachio’s health benefits and its versatile use in culinary applications. However, post-COVID-19, the market experienced notable shifts. The pandemic’s focus on health and nutrition bolstered demand for pistachios as a nutritious snack. Additionally, the growing popularity of home cooking during lockdowns expanded their use in various recipes.
