Political Factors- The contract manufacturers in India are allowed 100% foreign direct investment (FDI) in bakery contract manufacturing. Manufacturers can also sell products produced in India after abiding by the 30% local sourcing norm for foreign single-brand retail companies. Bakery contract manufacturing through the automatic route, in a big push to the Make in India initiative when US President Donald Trump is pushing American companies in China to scout for alternative locations. The changes to FDI norms may well reposition India on the global map.
Economical Factors- The growing process of raw materials required for manufacturing baked products is restraining the market’s growth. The cost of machines used in the baking process is also high, which adds to the overall cost of the product manufactured, hampering the market’s growth. The high manufacturing cost reduces the profit margin for manufacturers and small bakeries. This affects the overall growth of the bakery contract manufacturing market.
Social Factor- Companies increasingly initiate activities to conquer foreign markets, many evading less developed countries. This apparent contradiction is a logical step in enlarging business activities because many of these countries are on the threshold of becoming industrialized. Consequently, they reveal the huge potential for unsatisfied demands, which remained unattended until that point. Hence, even small and medium-sized enterprises turn “international,” seeking advantages in distribution and sourcing as well.
Technological Factors- Digitalization and technological advancement are expected to provide lucrative growth opportunities for the Bakery contract manufacturing market. The use of robotics and artificial intelligence enhances the whole process of bakery manufacturing. Rapid technological development also helps reduce the whole Bakery contract manufacturing cost and increases efficiency. The intervention of automation technologies and robotics also reduces the chances of food contamination, and developing high-quality baked products provides lucrative growth opportunities for the market during the Projection period.
Environmental Factors- Most packaging materials used for packing processed food and bakery products are very harmful to the environment. As small manufacturers purchase bakery products from other manufacturers, they often receive them packed in some kind of packing, which harms the environment. Ecolean packaging, an innovation in plastic pouches, is also gaining popularity in China. Eco-friendly, lightweight, and convenient packaging for portability has been adopted for the region's fresh milk and chilled drinking yogurt products.
Legal Factors- The Kraft Heinz Company and TheNotCompany partnered to focus on sustainability in the coming years. This acquisition is intended to drive innovations by utilizing the strengths of both companies. The Kraft Heinz Company acquired Companhia Hemmer Indústria e Comércio, also known as ‘Hemmer’, a food company located in Santa Catarina, Brazil.
