The global fruit and vegetable wash market represents one of the most compelling growth opportunities in consumer food safety. Valued at $3.97B in 2023, it is projected to reach $6.53B by 2030 at a compound annual growth rate of 7.4%—outpacing broader CPG categories and driven by durable, structural tailwinds rather than cyclical trends.

Pesticide Residues: The #1 Food Safety Fear Globally
The consumer problem PuriBreeze addresses is neither niche nor emerging—it is pervasive, measurable, and increasingly driving purchase decisions. FDA survey data confirms that 77% of domestically grown US fruits, 60% of vegetables, and 53% of grains carry detectable pesticide residues. This is not a perception gap; it is a documented public health data point that validates the category.
