Drivers and Restraints
Rising Footfall of Convenient Food to Underpin Industry Growth
Industry participants expect the trend for ready-to-eat food products to boost the pasta market growth during the forecast period. The Unione Italiana Food and ICE Agency claims that the product consumption surged in Germany, Italy, the U.S., and France during lockdown. Strong consumption of the product amidst the pandemic will foster the business outlook. Notably, the dish has become an invaluable part of diet globally. According to Oxfam, it is regarded as the favorite dish in the world. Current trends suggest leading companies will continue to inject funds into the market landscape.
However, low wheat production along with aversion toward high-calorie food could bring a notable shift in the industry. A notable surge in health-conscious consumers will compel industry players to rethink their strategies.
