The growth in sales is largely being helped by the discount organic ranges found at budget supermarkets such as Lidl or Aldi.
The figures bring organic food sales back to their highest level since 2009, following several difficult financial years and a rise in the cost of living.
Organic foods now have a 1.3 per cent share in the food and drink market overall and 2014 saw sales of organic sales increase by 4 per cent, bringing yearly spending figures to £1.86 billion.
