Peruvian products will no doubt play their part in that growth. The total UK world foods market was worth £1.7bn in 2013 and is set to hit £2.1bn by 2018, according to Mintel. But while everything else may be on a smaller scale, the opportunity remains considerable. Let’s be clear, it won’t usurp Chinese, Indian, Thai or even Mexican, which dominate the market for ‘ethnic’ ready meals, accompaniments, and cooking sauces. 2015 and beyond look primed to make Peruvian the world cuisine we all want to try. The on-trend among us may already have dined at growing restaurants Lima or Ceviche, both of which have been earning plaudits since opening, but these eateries are at the vanguard.
