Top Challenges Impacting the Middle East and Africa Quinoa Market Growth

Lack of Local Production Hindering Market Growth – The insufficient domestic production capacity of quinoa has been showing some challenges for the growth & expansion of the Middle East & Africa Quinoa Market. This is primarily driven by the absence of agronomic knowledge among farmers, and the restricted availability of high-quality seed varieties tailored to local climates, which hampers the large-scale cultivation of quinoa in the region. As a result, the region remains heavily reliant on imports to fill the supply gap, leading to supply chain disruptions and price fluctuations. For instance, in 2024, to meet the rising demand, the MENA region imported around 4,000 tons of quinoa valued at over USD 10 million, with Israel accounting for approximately 1,600 tons, the UAE for over 1,000 tons, and Saudi Arabia for more than 500 tons, among other countries. Such reliance on external supply further reduces the quinoa’s competitiveness with other traditional dietary components, like wheat and rice, thereby restraining the overall growth & development of the quinoa market in the Middle East & African region.
