BLACK BANANAS, ZUCHIOLO, SEEDLESS LEMONS, SWEET RED ONIONS… NEW AI TECHNOLOGY….
THE SECTOR IS INNOVATING AND PUTTING ON A SHOW AT EU TRADE FAIRS!

 

Through the FFM+ programme, the COLEAD Market Insights team keeps an eye on
trends and innovations at major trade shows in Europe and beyond. We meet our
stakeholders, visit stands and talk to as many people as possible to gather the
latest news and trends. Want to know more about the big stories from the shows
or the latest varieties to hit the fruit and vegetable market? In this article,
we share some of the discoveries we made during the 2024 trade fairs.

Since the beginning of the year, we have explored the exciting future of produce
at Fruit Logistica 2024, BIOFACH 2024 and Macfrut 2024. From the Black Banana to
the award-winning Zuchiolo , and the emergence of seedless lemons, sweet red
onions and exotic fruits like the Rubyglow Pineapple, the industry is evolving
rapidly.

As well as exciting new varieties, cutting-edge technologies such as AI are
shaping the future. We have also discovered innovative processing methods, such
as freeze-drying, which offer exciting culinary experiences and ultimate
convenience.

Black Banana: extended shelf-life and rich taste

Black banana from Ebonfare at FL24. “Rich caramel aroma, deliciously creamy
texture” and accredited Great Taste.



 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Black Banana: a novel processed form of bananas, apples and pears obtained by
slow drying under controlled conditions. The resulting products are black in
colour, with a caramel flavour and soft texture. They also have a shelf life of
2 years. At FL24, we had the opportunity to review the analytical reports of the
products from the microbiological analysis tests. The inventor of the black
banana, Krisztián Nagy, could imagine bringing the slow-drying technique to
Africa. Let’s see if this could be a new option for adding local value and
reducing food waste!

Zuchiolo: A pioneering vegetable mix that won the FL24 2024 Innovation Award

The Zuchiolo: on the outside it looks like a squash, but once cut it looks more
like a zucchini.

Zuchiolo: The only new vegetable at FL24 and winner of the FL24 2024 Innovation
Award. The Zuchiolo is a previously unknown vegetable with a blend of colours
and flavours, of which the yellow Zuchiolo variety is completely new. Zuchiolo
is very versatile, it can be cooked and eaten fresh and can be kept for several
weeks without refrigeration. The taste is a cross between courgette and
cucumber, while the vegetable also has some characteristics of a pumpkin. It is
the result of 5 years of cross breeding by Beyond Seeds and IFAPA and is adapted
to greenhouse production in Mediterranean climates. How did you win the FL24
Innovation Award? By creating an attractive product with a wide range of uses,
but also by adding a good story! The Zuchiolo is a social project, with 50% of
the proceeds going to social causes such as the fight against cancer.

Innovative varieties: Seedless lemons, sweet red onions, miniature apples and
more!

Other exciting innovative varieties include

Seedless lemons



 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Although introduced a few years ago, we have seen seedless lemons become
increasingly popular in the marketplace. The variety is still patented by
LemonGold TM, but it is being grown by many growers in different countries and
the product seems to be very well received by consumers. Demand is currently
higher than supply, which we believe makes it an interesting investment for new
growers.



 

Other recurring trends in citrus have been the introduction of new early and
late varieties such as the Sweet Cott, special pigments such as pink lemons or
spotted oranges, and a general focus on sweet, juicy, easy-peeling fruit with
almost no pips.

Sweet red onions



 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Another shortlisted candidate for the FL24 Innovation Award was Calypso, a very
tasty sweet red onion with very low pungency, making it easy to slice and very
nice to eat raw.

Ruby Glow Pineapple



 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Del Monte came up with this innovative product: a striking red-skinned pineapple
that is still very rare and is currently only grown in Costa Rica and exported
to China and the US as a luxury product.

All things mini: watermelon, apple



 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Watermelons, such as the Exceed watermelon launched at FL24, follow the same
trends we have seen in many fruits: small, more convenient sizes, no seeds,
sweet, juicy and crunchy taste.

 



 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The world’s first snack-sized apple was promoted at FL24. Rockit TM introduced
these mini apples (a big hit with kids), following the healthy snacking and
convenience trends.

Jackfruit



 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Jackfruit was very present at the shows this year, it’s being discovered in many
European countries as a meat alternative, pre-cooked ready to eat, in pizza
toppings, in powder for smoothies, as chips and more.

Freeze-dried fruit



 

 

 

 

 

 

 

A recurring trend that includes bananas, berries, passion fruit, mango,
jackfruit and more. These products are used in snacks or as powders in drinks,
smoothies, ice cream and more. Exhibitors from Germany, Turkey, Indonesia and
other countries showcased their innovative freeze-dried fruit offerings,
demonstrating the global reach and appeal of these products.

Innovative technology!

The number of innovations in the equipment industry is hard to count. Innovative
products on show ranged from drones and robots that work the fields to
high-tech, self-learning AI processing machines. Here are two examples that
caught our eye:

Faster and better sorting with AI

Artificial intelligence was the buzzword at the spring 2024 trade fairs. AI is
also pushing the boundaries in the processing equipment industry. Several
suppliers presented sorting machines that use AI to analyse information from
different scanners to sort fruit faster and more accurately. These sorting
machines can separate a wide range of defects that are difficult to distinguish
with the naked eye, while providing information on the quality of each
individual fruit in terms of sweetness or juice content.

Sorters presented at Macfrut2024. AI-driven accuracy and speed using data from
acoustic, NIR, RGB and other sensors.

AgroVoltaics

The Agrisolar Systems and Technologies exhibition at Macfrut 2024 was another
eye-catcher. Several companies showcased their most innovative ways of combining
agricultural production with photovoltaic energy generation. Agrovoltaics is
seen as a new frontier for renewable energy that could represent a significant
step in the decarbonisation of agriculture. A variety of solutions were on show
at Macfrut, including solar panels with tracker sensors that allow them to
follow the sun, and semi-transparent photovoltaic modules that can reduce crop
shading.

A variety of Agrovoltaic systems showcased at the new Agrisolar Systems and
Technologies exhibition at Macfrut 2024.

Plant Health: A Cornerstone for Achieving the SDGs through One Health
Today, the #IPPC Secretariat and global stakeholders gather at the FAO’s 29th
Committee on Agriculture (COAG) to explore the vital role of Plant Health within
the One Health framework.

We are excited to share that Jeremy Knops, COLEAD.link Délégué Général, takes
the floor to highlight how the international plant health community can join
forces with the private sector through COLEAD.link to accelerate progress
towards the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (#SDGs).

This hybrid event, titled Plant Health: Why is it Crucial for the Success of One
Health?”, emphasizes the interconnectedness of human, animal, plant, and
environmental health, and the need for collaborative action. At COLEAD.link, we
are deeply committed to facilitating this partnership, working closely with
private sector actors, smallholders, MSMEs, and cooperatives to ensure sanitary
and phytosanitary (SPS) compliance, promote sustainable agriculture, and enhance
market access.

Together, we can strengthen food systems, protect the environment, and promote
economic growth—all while safeguarding public health. Today's discussions
reinforce the power of collaboration in achieving the SDGs.
Let’s continue building a healthier, more sustainable world through plant health
and the One Health framework!
