Asia Pacific Food Allergens and Intolerance Testing Market Size Expands at Significant CAGR 7.44% Touching USD 1.03 Billion by 2029
Asia-Pacific Food Allergens and Intolerance Testing Market is flourishing because of the growing food allergies and increasing advancements in testing technology.
BlueWeave Consulting, a leading strategic consulting and market research firm, in its recent study, estimated the Asia-Pacific Food Allergens and Intolerance Testing Market size at USD 671.2 million in 2022. During the forecast period between 2023 and 2029, BlueWeave expects Asia-Pacific Food Allergens and Intolerance Testing Market size to grow at a significant CAGR of 7.44% reaching a value of USD 1,032.6 million by 2029. Major growth drivers for the Asia-Pacific Food Allergens and Intolerance Testing Market include the increasing government regulations, growing food and beverages industry, and rising international trade in food and its ingredients, opens avenues for players in the Food Allergen Testing Market in the APAC region. Notably, the imported food undergoes rigorous scrutiny adhering to quality and labeling standards. Consequently, manufacturers exporting to developed regions must comply with stringent food safety and labeling regulations, amplifying the demand for food allergen testing products and services. Simultaneously, government authorities in nations like China, Australia, South Korea, and Taiwan are increasingly prioritizing the establishment of strict regulations for food allergen labeling. Unlike global trends, the prevalence of food allergies varies across regions. While eggs, wheat, peanuts, soy, milk, tree nuts, fish, and shellfish are recognized as the eight common food allergens worldwide, they may not be the primary sources of allergies in Asian countries. Research indicates that allergens more prevalent in Asia differ from those in North America and Europe. Notably, shellfish emerges as a significant food allergen in Asian countries, particularly impacting children. This regional distinction underscores the need for tailored regulatory frameworks and heightened awareness in addressing specific allergenic challenges. However, cost and accessibility and limited public awareness are anticipated to restrain the overall market growth during the forecast period.
Opportunity – Expanding Market for Food Allergens and Intolerance Testing
Emerging markets are witnessing a notable focus on food allergen testing. According to the World Allergy Organization (WAO), annual anaphylaxis incidents in emergency rooms vary from 222,300 to 350 in Hungary, Japan, and China. The estimated prevalence rates are 2%, 0.1%, and 0.6-1% in the United, Korea, and Australia respectively. The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) emphasizes food safety, significantly influencing the food industry and driving market growth. Moreover, the prevalence of food allergies has risen considerably since the 1990s, making the food allergens testing market a crucial segment in regions such as Europe, the U.S., and beyond. This growing awareness and regulatory emphasis underscore the market's importance globally.
Impact of COVID-19 on Asia-Pacific Food Allergens and Intolerance Testing Market
