PROSPECTS AND OPPORTUNITIES
A scenario of uncertainty in local rice production
Rice remains an essential component of the Bolivian diet, with high per capita consumption levels driving a robust local production sector. In recent years, rice production has grown steadily, meeting national demand with around 621,000 tons produced in 2023, as reported by the Ministry of Productive Development and Plural Economy.
Demand for instant noodles continues to grow as a low-priced food alternative
The instant noodle market in Bolivia remains highly concentrated, with major brands such as Aji-no-men, Maruchan, and Nissin enjoying widespread recognition and market penetration. In recent years, demand for instant noodles has increased significantly, largely due to their affordability and convenience, which have become even more pertinent amid rising food costs.
The offer of dried pasta with differentiated nutritional attributes continues to expand
Even amidst rising food prices, demand for niche products with enhanced nutritional qualities continues to grow, especially among Bolivia’s higher-income consumers. Dried pasta products made with local ingredients, such as quinoa-based varieties that are gluten-free and suitable for those with coeliac disease, are already available in prominent supermarket chains like Hipermaxi and Fidalga.
