Strong Growth in the Food & Beverage Industry Drives the Growth of the Food Flavors Market
In recent years, the rapidly rising incomes and urbanization have spurred interest in convenient packaged foods and fast food. These factors are expected to boost the food & beverage market, as packaged goods require high flavoring loadings to preserve taste lost during large-scale manufacturing. The food & beverage industry is expected to remain the key driver for the growth of the food flavors market. The global food & beverage market has witnessed a healthy growth over the last ten years and is expected to maintain this growth over the coming years.
According to Statistics Canada and Farm Credit Canada (FCC), the food & beverage manufacturing sales reached $122.9 billion in 2020, a 3.5% increase compared to 2019. With the flourishing food industry and increasing demand for processed foods, the flavor industry is expected to witness significant growth.
This growth will drive the widespread use of flavors in processed food, snacks, soft drinks, candy and confectioneries, meat and seafood products, sauces and condiments, etc. Expansion of fortified food and beverages is expected to provide opportunities since flavors are required to conceal the unpalatable tastes of vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, and other added ingredients.
Asia-Pacific to be the Fastest-growing Regional Market
Asia-Pacific accounted for the largest share of the food flavors market in 2021, followed by Europe, North America, Latin America, and the Middle East & Africa. The large market share of Asia-Pacific is primarily attributed to the increasing demand for processed food products in emerging and developing countries, such as India, China, Indonesia, and Thailand; shifting consumer preferences for high-quality food ingredients, and the increasing outsourcing of processed food manufacturing from the Asian region to meet the growing international demand.
Additionally, Asia-Pacific is slated to grow at the fastest CAGR during the analysis period due to the growing processed food industry in the region, rising investments in the food sector, and the tremendous growth in the food and beverage industry, which is attributed to increasing urbanization, growing health awareness, and rising disposable income.
