Fruit juices are produced and consumed for their refreshing nature and nutritional qualities. They are rich in vitamins and minerals and have regulatory functions for the body. Fruits are popular among all ages, but their availability is limited during the season, which lasts 3-4 months for most fruits. Therefore, they need to be processed and preserved, which also adds additional nutritional value. These products find good market value within the district. The easy availability and popularity among young and old have brought rapid growth to the fruit drinks business.
