According to RNCOS a leading market research and information firm: During 2000-2008, the average annual growth of the industry ranged between 16%-21%. In 2009, the industry successfully endured economic slowdown effects and posted positive year on year growth rate, which was well ahead of total food sales growth in 2009. With the government’s monetary and regulatory support and increasing acceptance of organic food in the country, the industry is expected to grow 13% during 2010-2014.
