Drivers and Opportunities:

Rising demand for meat, poultry, bakery, dairy, and confectionery products

Meat, dairy, bakery, and confectionery products are some of the major applications of food & food processing and handling equipment. The growing consumption of protein-based food products, frozen meat, frozen bakery products, and fruits & vegetables; and the growing preference for healthy food products in developed countries drive the demand for higher food production. This growth in demand for various food products will, in turn, drive the demand for food processing and handling equipment. There have been various product launches in snack and bakery product categories, with health claims such as gluten-free and non-GMO in the European market.

Similarly, snacks and bakery products require cutting, coating, slicing, and thermal equipment for manufacturing end products, adding taste and texture, and extending the shelf life. The growth of the bakery & confectionery industry in Europe and other developed countries is also expected to drive the demand for food processing and handling equipment.

Rise in demand from developing countries, such as China and India

Emerging economies, such as BRIC (Brazil, Russia, India, and China), offer several growth opportunities for food packaging equipment manufacturers. Growth in these regions is mainly driven by the consumers’ inclination toward ready-to-eat and convenience food products. Some of the key factors driving the demand for packaged or processed food products are as follows: changing lifestyles of the consumers, rapidly rising disposable income, rising brand awareness, an increasing number of working women, and increased concerns about the quality of the food products. These emerging economies across the globe will act as new revenue pockets for the food packaging industry. According to Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada (AAFC). It grew at a CAGR of 11.5% between 2017 and 2018 to reach USD 347 billion by 2018. This is expected to provide growth opportunities for the packaged food industry, which, in turn, will lead to the growth of the food packaging technology & equipment market.
