    As consumers become more health-conscious, there has been a notable increase in demand for organic and all-natural sauces and spices in Burundi. This trend is driven by a growing interest in clean eating and a desire for transparency and sustainability in food production. Additionally, with a growing middle class and urbanization, there is an increasing preference for convenience and international flavors, leading to a surge in imported sauces and spices.
