This trend is driven by the growing health consciousness among consumers, as well as increasing concerns about the environmental impact of food production and packaging. As a result, there is a growing demand for organic and locally sourced convenience foods.

Additionally, the country's history of Soviet influence has resulted in a strong demand for convenience foods that are easy to prepare and consume on-the-go. This unique blend of cultural and geographic factors has created a dynamic market for convenience food in Lithuania, with a focus on high-quality, locally-sourced ingredients.
