Exporting speciality grains with added value to Europe
In Europe, speciality grains such as quinoa, amaranth, teff, and millet are sold both as a grain and in other forms such as flour, flakes or puffs. This presents an opportunity for exporters to sell these grains not only dried but also with some added value. However, the market for speciality grains with added value is still a niche. Competition is fierce, as there are several products competing for the same niche markets, such as gluten-free or healthy plant-based proteins.
