Key Market Trends

Bread Remains the Mainstay in the Bakery Industry

Bread shares the major market share in bakery products industry. However, its market dominance has been challenged by other bakery products, including pastries and especially doughnuts, that has enjoyed rapid growth in recent years and are expected to continue expanding in the coming years. The main driver for the growth in the bread segment is the increase in demand for bread containing whole grain, high in fiber, gluten-free, or healthy and fortified bread. Items such as these are becoming increasingly popular with consumers, due to the enhanced uptake of the healthy lifestyle concept. In the developed countries, competition is uneven, due to product diversity and a large number of informal channels that produce bread.

Europe Dominates the Global Bakery Products Market

Europe accounts for the largest revenue share in the bakery products market. The developed markets of Western Europe in bakery products are matured and saturated compared to emerging markets of Eastern Europe, which are driving the sales of biscuits and bread, in particular, owing to the high demand for convenient food products. The European bakery markets are well-established in terms of the supply chain, product array, distribution channels, and consumer preferences. Innovations and new product development are increasingly observed in the indulgence-categories, like cakes, pastries, and cookies. The traditional morning goods in Europe are witnessing the rise of gluten-free, whole grain, an ancient grain, and additive free products, which have the potential of higher sales, with the growing demand for instant and nutritious baked products.
