Global Food Texture Market- Market Overview:

The Global Food Texture market is expected to grow from USD 22.11 billion in 2022 to USD 31.9 billion by 2030, at a CAGR of 4.7% during the Projection period 2023-2030. The growth of this market is mainly driven owing to the increasing demand for packaged and ready-to-eat food products.

A wide range of products are textured, including dairy products, ice cream, jams, baked goods, salads, candies, soups, and drinks, and the future demand for texturing agents is expected to be driven by consumer fascination and interest, as improvements in appearance encourage consumers to purchase more products. Research has been conducted on methods to improve the texture of thermally processed products because consumers are increasingly seeking 'fresh-like' processed plant-based foods, creating new opportunities for market growth. A growing market for modified consumables for the elderly may emerge shortly. In the future, additives and emulsifiers will play a key role in producing food items that are expected to eradicate swallowing problems among the elderly and establish a market for them. Increasingly, the food industry is required to inspect individual commodities to maintain and upgrade food quality, including shape and texture, before they are delivered to consumers. Food products of exceptional quality and consistency are becoming increasingly popular in domestic and global markets. Furthermore, the high cost of textured foods has restricted their adoption in middle-income groups, and in rural and isolated regions, consumers prefer home-cooked meals as a result of their convenience, which will hamper the growth of the market.
