The squash market in Bahrain is growing, supported by demand for fresh and locally sourced fruits. A significant trend is the increasing interest in organic and sustainably grown squash, driven by consumer preference for healthier and eco-friendly produce. The rise of plant-based diets and vegetarianism is also contributing to the market growth, as squash serves as a versatile ingredient in many plant-based dishes.

While there is some demand for squash equipment, such as rackets, balls, and apparel, the overall market size remains small. Additionally, the lack of widespread facilities and training programs for squash reduces the interest and participation in the sport, limiting the overall market potential. The market is further impacted by the reliance on imports for squash products, which raises prices and affects competitiveness for local businesses.
The demand for fresh and processed squash products is rising in Bahrains health-conscious consumer market. Investment in squash farming, distribution, and value-added products like squash-based juices and purees presents profitable opportunities.
Squash (the fruit, not the sport) has a small market in Bahrain, with demand primarily in fresh produce and juice form. Local cultivation is limited, but imports meet demand in both retail and HORECA sectors. Government policies supporting greenhouse agriculture and food self-sufficiency may encourage local squash production, particularly as part of vertical farming and hydroponics projects. Import standards ensure quality and traceability of produce.
